Gate to control construction traffic in Henry County neighborhood
Construction traffic is affecting roads near Heron Bay.
The Henry County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously at its June 16 regular meeting to approve a resolution authorizing placement of a gate on a section of county right-of-way between Hunter Road and the current end of pavement of Watson Circle.
As home construction continues in the northwest portion of the Heron Bay subdivision, construction traffic has increased on Luella Road and Hunter Road, neither of which are intended for that kind of traffic, officials said. Signage has gone up prohibiting it, but commissioner Johnny Wilson requested that further action be taken.
The gate will have an approved lock to allow public safety access to that portion of Heron Bay.
