County schedules Daves Creek Drive work

Daves Creek Drive in Forsyth County will be temporarily closed to through traffic at Old Atlanta Road beginning Aug. 5.

The project will also include construction of left and right turning lanes on Old Atlanta Road.

The road is expected to re-open by Sept. 8. The work is funded by the Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax program, SPLOST VI.
