Johns Creek residents will have the opportunity to talk about “traffic calming” options for the Barnwell Road Corridor at a meeting next week.

The public input meeting is to start at 7 p.m. Thursday, March 28, at Barnwell Elementary School, 9425 Barnwell Road. Public Works staff will give a project update and talk about possible traffic calming and intersection improvements. Options include turn lanes or roundabouts – or no change at all.

“A variety of alternatives are being evaluated at intersections along Barnwell Road to determine the appropriate solution based on operational and safety considerations,” according to a city announcement.

“Barnwell Road is a two-lane collector road, and staff is seeking feedback from residents on how to best retain this collector status by improving safety (and) reducing traffic speeds and volume.”
