Johns Creek Completes Brumbelow Road Sidewalk Project

JOHNS CREEK, GA — City Council member Steve Broadbent and staff members this week marked the completion of another sidewalk project in Johns Creek.

This latest project is located along Brumbelow Road, and the new half-mile long 10-foot wide sidewalk improves connectivity from Nesbit Ferry Road to Old Alabama Road and Newtown Park. The city's project also installed a pedestrian bridge to a narrow motorist bridge on the road from Mackinac Drive to Stoney Ridge Drive, which had prevented pedestrians from traveling safely on this corridor.

Last month, city officials completed the Parsons Road sidewalk project, which comprises a total of five completed sections of sidewalk along the road. This project closed a gap in the sidewalk network between Abbotts Bridge Road and Medlock Bridge Road.

That 5-foot wide and 8-foot wide sidewalk segments are along an elementary school walking route, and improve overall safety and walkability in the area. The project also includes a lighted crosswalk between Stonegrove Overlook Road and the bridge over Johns Creek tributary.

For more information regarding the city’s plan to increase sidewalk connectivity, please view the sidewalk rankings and Sidewalk Improvement Policy.
