Beginning Monday, June 25, the Arabia Mountain PATH trail, from Mile Marker 5.0 at the North Goddard Road crossing to Mile Marker 5.80 at the Flatrock Spur crossing, will be closed to install a new sewer main. Repairs include replacing deteriorated small sewer line with newer and larger pipe.

The PATH is scheduled to reopen in early July.

As part of DeKalb County’s $1.345 billion Capital Improvement Program, the Department of Watershed Management is assessing and repairing lines to improve sewer service and reduce sanitary sewer overflows.

Detour and trail closure signs will be visible at trailheads and throughout the park to notify bikers and pedestrians of the upcoming construction and closure.
