Road closing for work on intersection

With construction starting on intersection improvements where Lake Dow Road meets Rodgers and Rosser roads, a road closure and detour went into effect Feb. 8, county officials announced.

The road is expected to be closed at that location until March 14. A detour will be clearly marked for motorists to navigate the area during this time, officials said.

A detailed detour map can be downloaded from the SPLOST page on the county’s website, www.henrycounty-ga.org.
