Marietta will have to close a few roads this week as crews repave them.

City spokeswoman Lindsey Wiles said the contractor is setting the schedule, so she couldn’t give exact times of the work. That means it might be best for residents to avoid the work areas all day.

The affected roads are on both sides of North Marietta Parkway near where it meets Cobb Parkway.

Will the Braves' SunTrust Park create a traffic nightmare?

Here’s when and where crews will be working:

  • Alpine Way on Tuesday
  • Skyview Drive on Tuesday and Wednesday
  • Trout Street on Thursday and Friday

Crews spent last Thursday, Friday and this Monday repaving Chicopee Drive.
