Construction of a new sewer line in Tyrone is requiring the closure of part of a walking trail in Shamrock Park. Town Manager Brandon Perkins said recently that the closure was expected, just not so soon; it took effect Aug. 21 and will last about two weeks. The portion of the path affected is along the lake, behind the Tyrone Public Library and the recreation department building, near the railroad tracks. The construction company must bore under the tracks as part of the project.
Perkins apologized “for the short notice and for any inconvenience this may present to those who utilize this amenity,” but noted that another path along Senoia Road that goes from Shamrock Park to Handley Park has recently been improved with new signage and dog waste stations, courtesy of a Boy Scout, and is an alternative walking area for residents.
