Canton Road to close for eight months for bridge repairs

March 28, 2012

Canton Road will be closed at Highway 41, Cobb Parkway, for eight months while workers replace a bridge, the CSX railroad bridge and realign the roadway.

The closures will begin in mid-April and drivers are encouraged to avoid the area altogether and use the Canton Road connector as an alternate route.

The bridge replacement is necessary partly because of a low sufficiency rating determined by state bridge inspections. Construction is estimated at $11.2 million, and will be funded by GDOT.
