Skyland Drive Water Project to Begin Nov. 6

DECATUR, Ga. – The DeKalb County Department of Watershed Management (DWM) will begin the Skyland Drive Water Main Replacement Project on Monday, Nov. 6. The project will replace nearly 5,000 feet of water main pipes and will result in road closures.

Starting next week, portions of Skyland Drive between Park Lane and Dresden Drive will be closed daily from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Single-lane closures will occur throughout the six-month water main replacement project.

Motorists and MARTA passengers that use Skyland Drive between Park Lane and Dresden Drive are urged to plan for extra commuting time. Lane closure signs will be in the area alerting motorists to the construction work and local traffic restrictions. For more information, visit the DWM website at www.dekalbwatershed.com, call the DWM Project Information Line at 1-800-986-1108, or email projectinfo@dekalbcountyga.gov.
