Intersection Improvement Update
The city received a state grant of $784,000 as a contribution toward the $3 million intersection improvement planned for Tilly Mill Road at N. Peachtree Road, including the Peeler Road intersection. Coupled with the funds already allocated by the city, a final $200,000 will be requested for the 2015 budget to complete the funding allocation. Construction is expected in 2015 and will be the city’s first major intersection improvement since incorporation.
A second intersection improvement, Mt. Vernon Road at Vermack Road with left-turn lanes added, could also begin construction in 2015, if approved for funding in the 2015 budget.
