Rabbit Hill Road Reopens Sept. 14 In Holly Springs

HOLLY SPRINGS, GA — A major road in Holly Springs will soon reopen to vehicular traffic. Rabbit Hill Road will reopen to motorists on Friday, the city of Holly Springs said.

Baldwin Paving Company, the contractor for the Holly Springs Parkway Widening Project, said the road will reopen at or before noon on Sept. 14.

Because of the condition of the asphalt, which was determined to be more than 40 years old, the contractor rebuilt the road from the ground-up. Rabbit Hill Road was the subject of improvements from its intersection with Holly Springs Parkway to the Interstate 575 overpass.

Along with the reconstruction to bring the road up to current standards, contractors also made drainage improvements and will open a turn lane and install a traffic signal at the intersection with Holly Springs Parkway later this fall.

Motorists should note construction will continue in the area as overhead utilities are relocated to make way for the travel lanes and culvert extension on the eastern side of Holly Springs Parkway.

Along with the Rabbit Hill Road improvements, the city's project widened Holly Springs Parkway to include four travel lanes with a median, sidewalks and pedestrian lamps and traffic signals at its intersection with Rabbit Hill Road.
