The city of Dunwoody has completed sidewalk construction along Perimeter Center East and the Perimeter Center East Extension, closing a 300-foot gap in the sidewalk there.

Significant utility relocation and grading were required to complete the project, according to a city statement.

In recent years, new townhomes were built to the south and a new Montessori school opened on the corner so that this project provides improved connectivity.

Also, the city has plans to build a park nearby next year.

The Perimeter Community Improvement Districts (PCIDs) provided a 50% match to the city’s special purpose local option sales tax (SPLOST) funds to cover the cost of the project.
