The long awaited Hapeville Rail Facilities Improvement Project has begun construction, according to city officials. Storm drain installation work began June 18 at the Pedestrian Overpass bridge area. There will be some temporary closure of parking spaces that are next to the railroad tracks on North Central Avenue. However, parking spaces in front of businesses on North Central will remain open.
A six-month schedule was recently released:
Storm Drain – North Central and North Fulton: June 12 through June 25

The city will provide periodic updates and schedule changes.
