Georgia Department of Transportation officials will be closing lanes periodically at the intersection of Ga. 140 (Houze Road) and Hembree Road over the next six months for utility relocation work.

GDOT crews will be setting up single-lane closures at various points along both roads between 9 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. daily. The relocation work is being done in connection with construction of a roundabout at the intersection.

GDOT officials say drivers can expect delays.
