Gwinnett DOT plans to close Holcomb Bridge Road at Thrasher Street beginning Feb. 18 for an intersection improvement project. Holcomb Bridge Road/Thrasher Street is anticipated to re-open three months later on about May 19.
The detour route for Holcomb Bridge Road will be Holcomb Bridge Road to South Peachtree Street to Jones Street to West Peachtree Street and the reverse. The detour route for Thrasher Street will be Thrasher Street to Autry Street to South Peachtree Street to Jones Street to Thrasher Street and the reverse.
The intersection will be raised about 5 feet to provide a more moderate grade transition over the railroad tracks, with the goal to prevent trucks from becoming stuck on the tracks. The gradual increase in grade will begin at 57 Holcomb Bridge Road to the tracks, and from 71 Thrasher St. to 168 Thrasher St. No work is proposed on the South Peachtree side of the tracks.
