Holcomb Bridge Road Interchange Projects Could Begin Summer 2014

Funding is coming from a voter-approved bond and the Georgia Department of Transportation.

Local residents and passers-through Roswell could begin to see signs of progress surrounding the Holcomb Bridge Road/Ga 400 interchange in 2014, according to the city.

Enhancements to the heavily congested interchange have long been demanded by commuters, but never actually funded - until now.

"As a general summary, you should see construction activity starting as early as next summer," said Roswell Department of Transportation Director Steve Acenbrak.

The initiative as a whole is being treated as three separate bond projects, according to Acenbrak. Both a bond approved by city residents and money provided by the Georgia Department of Transportation will fund the projects.

The Georgia DOT has committed to fund several aspects of the interchange improvements, including the northbound ramp intersection, the southbound off-ramp and an extended turn lane at Warsaw Road. The southbound on-ramp will also get a minor facelift, according to the Roswell Department of Transportation website.

And because of the $14 million bond approved by Roswell voters last November, the westbound through-lane, a new Ga 400 northbound early off-ramp and aesthetic improvements at the interchange will also occur.
