Georgia DOT crews are building a replacement bridge on Arnold Mill Road at the Fulton-Cherokee County line. Arnold Mill Road / Ga. 140 will be moved just to the north to connect to the new bridge high above Little River.
The bridge is just east of the intersection of Arnold Mill Road at Hickory Flat Highway in Cherokee County. It is just west of the Military Depot, a landmark and store located in the old Chadwick's Store building.
The bridge above Little River also marks the city limits dividing Roswell and Milton in north Fulton County on the east end of the bridge and unincorporated east Cherokee County on the west end of the bridge.
The bridge is expected to be completed in January 2019, according to the Georgia Department of Transportation. Posts at both ends of the current bridge are dated 1952.
The new bridge will be wider and higher above the ground than the current bridge. The road will remain two lanes, according to Georgia transportation officials. The bridge will be wide enough to include a 10-foot shoulder.
The bridge is expected to be completed around Nov. 30.
