Sidewalk construction underway in Brookhaven

Crews have begun building a new sidewalk on Ashford Dunwoody Road in Brookhaven as part of the city’s $900,000 effort for walkways.

Construction will take several weeks, depending on weather, for the sidewalk between Stratfield Drive and Humility Lane. The city set aside $400,000 in its 2013 budget and plans to spend $500,000 this year on similar projects.
