Cobb Parkway bridge replacement nears completion
By Carolyn Cunningham
Sept 13, 2016The Cobb Parkway bridge replacement project over the Chattahoochee River is almost complete.
Replacing the 1935 bridge, one of the first four-lane divided highways in Georgia, this project began at Northgate Drive in Fulton County and ended at Paces Mill Road in Cobb.
The new six lanes are separated by a raised median with a 12-foot-wide multi-use trail on the east side of the bridge and a five-foot sidewalk on the west.
The multi-use trail also has improved access to the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area’s Palisades Trailhead at Paces Mill.
