The Johns Creek City Council recently approved a $3.9 million contract with Allied Paving Contractors for annual resurfacing and patching/edge of pavement repair work. The city is also working with Fulton County to adjust manhole covers impacted by the resurfacing efforts.

Based on the city’s current five-year resurfacing plan, McGinnis Ferry Road (from Bell Road to Belcrest Drive) and five neighborhoods will be resurfaced in 2023 including: Abbotts Cove, Highgate, Long Indian Creek, Pine Ridge and Seven Oaks.

Based on pavement conditions like potholes and asphalt failures (cracks, gaps, roughness), the city also plans patching seven roads: Bell Road, Boles Road, Buice Road, Findley Road, McGinnis Ferry Road, Old Alabama Road and Sargent Road. To maintain the paved surfaces in city parks, Shakerag Park is also due for resurfacing this year.

The resurfacing work is expected to begin in May and be completed by October.
