Motorists can expect delays in downtown Roswell later this month as crews prune and raise tree canopies, requiring one lane of traffic on Canton Street to be closed and driveways possibly blocked for short periods.
The project is scheduled for June 19-23 for Canton and the Heart of Roswell Park, near Elizabeth Way, city officials said.
Caldwell Tree Care will perform the work for The Historic Roswell Beautification Project, a nonprofit dedicated to preserving the beauty and charm of Roswell streets and the historic district.
Roswell Department of Transportation crews will place signs at each end of Canton to warn of possible delays, and they will assist in traffic flow throughout the project.
Street work will take place from 9 to 11 a.m. to ensure minimal impact on local businesses and their customers, officials said.
At 11 a.m., crews will move to the Heart of Roswell Park and work there until after peak lunch traffic; then, they will return to Canton from 2 to 4 p.m.
