Intersection Improvement Virtual Open House for S.R. 140 at Spalding Dr.

Published

on

You are invited to a Transportation Project Virtual Public Information Open House. The Gwinnett County Department of Transportation along with the Georgia Department of Transportation, City of Sandy Springs, and the City of Peachtree Corners will hold a Virtual Public Information House for the S.R. 140/Holcomb Bridge Road at Spalding Drive.

Gwinnett County and Georgia DOT are seeking feedback about the improvement of the intersection of S.R. 140/Holcomb Bridge Road at Spalding Drive in Fulton and Gwinnett counties.

Comment Period ends August 7

This project is proposed to improve traffic flow, relieve congestion, and reduce delays at the intersection of S.R. 140/Holcomb Bridge Road and Spalding Drive.

S.R. 140/Holcomb Bridge Road serves as a major commercial corridor and the queuing associated with left turning vehicles is causing traffic delays in the area, with projected increase in traffic volume expected to increase the period of delay over time.

Project Details: 

The proposed project would consist of removing the dedicated left-turn lanes along Spalding Drive at the intersection of S.R. 140/Holcomb Bridge Road and would reroute those left turn movements to existing signalized intersections with S.R. 140/Holcomb Bridge Road along River Exchange Drive and Wetherburn Way.

This would require the modification of the following adjacent intersections in order to accommodate the rerouting of traffic:

  • Wetherburn Way and Holcomb Bridge Road,
  • Wetherburn Way and Spalding Drive,
  • River Exchange Drive and S.R. 140/Holcomb Bridge Road.

The modifications are generally limited to minor widening, milling and inlaying, concrete median installation, and signal adjustment. Existing right-of-way (ROW) varies between 60-140 feet. Proposed ROW will vary between 60-140 feet.

Peachtree Corners City Council Recognizes GCPD Officers

Published

on

During the Council Meeting on February 28, the City of Peachtree Corners recognized three Gwinnett County Police Department Officers — Officers Dillon Burk, Aleksandar Panayotov and Amber Brown — for their actions last November.

The three officers worked quickly to stop alleged suspects involved in victimizing Peachtree Corners businesses.

City Manager Brian Johnson issued the following Proclamation:

A Declaration of The City of Peachtree Corners, Georgia Recognizing Officers Dillon Burk, Aleksandar Panayotov, and Amber Brown

WHEREAS, On Nov. 8, 2022 West Precinct officers were dispatched to a burglary at the SS Food Mart and Vape. A video was obtained showing four suspects smashing the front door.

WHEREAS, Detectives were contacted by Officer Burk, who recognized one of the suspects in the video as a juvenile he had previously been arrested on a shoplifting call alongside an adult.

WHEREAS, On November 12, Officer Burk and Officer Panayotov performed a traffic stop on a car with plates that did not match the vehicle. The driver was the adult female previously arrested for shoplifting with the juvenile. There was a book bag in the car that the officers recalled seeing in the burglary video. The female was taken to headquarters and interviewed by Officer Burk and Officer Brown. During the interview, the suspect disclosed her involvement in the burglary, as well as the location of the stolen goods, which were at the juvenile’s home.

WHEREAS, A search warrant was obtained and stolen items were found. The female suspect was charged with burglary and contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT DECLARED by the Mayor and Council of the City of Peachtree Corners that these officers be recognized for their good police work, for without it, the suspects would have likely continued victimizing businesses in Peachtree Corners.

SO DECLARED on this the day of 28th day of February 2023.
