Forsyth County announced roadwork in the coming days that will affect traffic on Samples Road and Ga. 400, both in the Cumming area.

Beginning Monday and continuing through Friday, Samples will be closed to through traffic from Parker Drive to 2925 Samples as crews replace a cross drain, officials said. Motorists can use Nuckolls Road as an alternate for traveling between Buford Highway (Ga. 20) and Buford Dam Road.

Separately, bridge construction will affect Ga. 400 traffic at Pilgrim Mill Road,. A single, inside lane of northbound Ga. 400 will be closed, and northbound and/or southbound traffic pacing is planned, between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday, officials said.

All work is “weather permitting” and subject to change. Information: https://bit.ly/311ZHu5
