Culvert replacement to close Nichols Drive

Nichols Drive will be temporarily closed to through traffic Monday between James Burgess Road and Nichols Road in southeast Forsyth County. The closure will allow for the replacement of a failing pipe and the construction of a new reinforced box culvert that will be sized to better handle heavy rains. The road is expected to reopen on or before Friday.

The project is funded by SPLOST VI, a 1-percent sales tax approved by voters February 5, 2008.
