Gwinnett to improve intersection

Gwinnett County Commissioners in October approved a project to reduce congestion at the intersection of Lawrenceville-Suwanee Road at State Route 120/Duluth Highway by adding turn lanes and sidewalk and upgrading the traffic signal.

CMES was the lowest of six bidders at $1,000,069 for the intersection improvement. The project will upgrade the intersection by providing two left-turn-only lanes on both approaches of Lawrenceville-Suwanee Road. Sidewalks, curb and gutter, drainage improvements and traffic signal upgrades are included in the project.

The 2014 Special Purpose Location Option Sales Tax program funds the project.
