Road project 0017830: CS 111/BUICE ROAD @ JOHNS CREEK
Under Construction · Bridges · Cities: Johns Creek · Funding: NEPA · This project consists of replacing the existing roadway bridge on CR 111/Buice Road over Johns Creek in Fulton County. The bridge was built in 1964 and has a sufficiency rating of 57.7. Currently, the bridge is weight limited, does not meet current bridge width requirements, and lacks pedestrian facilities. Additionally, the bridge is at risk of flooding during severe storming events. The proposed replacement will meet current design standards for load and bridge width. The proposed typical section includes two 12-foot lanes, one lane in each direction, with urban shoulders and pedestrian facilities. To mitigate the risk of flooding, the bridge elevation will be increased above the flood stage. The design speed is 45 mph.
