Sandy Springs planning streetscape improvements

Sandy Springs officials recently unveiled plans for streetscape improvements on Sandy Springs Circle between Hammond Drive and Mt. Vernon Highway that tie in with the nearby City Springs project.

The $7 million project calls for canopy street trees, upgraded lighting, a multi-use path on one side of the roadway, sidewalks, landscaping, on-street parking and other improvements. In addition, the existing four-lane roadway will be modified into one 11-foot-wide travel lane in each direction with a 10-foot median/left turn lane and an 8-foot parking lane.
