Lane closures began Wednesday for construction on sections of South Candler Street between Green Street and Bruton Street from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., while crews work to rehabilitate approximately 670 linear feet of aging, ductile-iron sewer pipe. These sections of South Candler Street are set to reopen on Friday, March 13.

The DeKalb County Department of Watershed Management has initiated this construction project as a part of ongoing maintenance to repair approximately 100,000 linear feet of sewer pipe to improve sewer service county-wide.

Motorists and MARTA passengers should expect traffic delays stemming from the lane closures. Signs and traffic flaggers will assist motorists in moving safely around the lane closures. Our construction crews will work diligently to minimize the length of impact to motorists and MARTA passengers.
