The public is invited to an open house to discuss the Georgia DOT’s proposed project to widen State Route 11/US 129/Cleveland Highway 4 to 7 p.m. Tuesday at the North Hall Community Center, 4175 Nopone Road in Gainesville.

The project proposes to widen US129/SR11/Cleveland Highway from two to four lanes with a 20-foot-wide raised median. Total project is approximately 5.4 miles. Two separate projects will widen the bridges along the SR 11/US 129/Cleveland Highway corridor within the limits of the widening project.

Hall county residents interested in learning more about the proposed project to widen Cleveland Highway from Limestone Parkway to Jim Hood/Nopone Road are encouraged to attend the meeting and express their thoughts, preferences and concerns. Project displays and detour maps will be available. Georgia DOT representatives will also be there to discuss the project and answer questions without a formal presentation.
