If you use the Encore Parkway bridge over Ga. 400 in Alpharetta, better start making other plans. It’ll be closed next year from January to November as part of a road improvement project.
The North Fulton Community Improvement District, city of Alpharetta and state road and transportation officials are teaming up to widen a seven-tenths-of-a-mile stretch of Encore between Westside and Northpoint parkways. As part of that, the bridge is being demolished, replaced and upgraded to accommodate any future Ga. 400 widening.
The $12 million project will also include wider 14-foot travel lanes, bike lanes, sidewalks, landscaped buffers and a raised, landscaped median. The approximately 18-month upgrade process started earlier this fall and is set to finish up in 2017.
