Allgood Road will be closed from Cobb Pkwy to Tom Read Drive today

Allgood Road will be closed from Cobb Pkwy to Tom Read Drive today (Friday, August 28th) and potentially tomorrow as well. A 48 inch storm water drain pipe failed and caused a hole to develop in the road. The City will be replacing the pipe and repairing the road.

Update on the Allgood Rd Stormwater pipe collapse… As you may have heard or seen we have an area of collapse on Allgood rd. A 48 inch stormwater pipe is damaged and contract crews are replacing the pipe. A section of sanitary sewer pipe is also being repaired while the hole is open. Hopefully, if it does not rain the contractor will be able to complete the repairs tonight. We will have to wait a while to repave the road section, but they are planning on installing stone on top of the compacted fill so that vehicles can drive on it in the interim.
