Crews Finish Parsons Road Sidewalk Project

JOHNS CREEK, GA — Crews in Johns Creek have completed a construction project that filled in a sidewalk gap along Parsons Road.

The project installed five sections of sidewalk, closing a gap in the network from Abbotts Bridge and Medlock Bridge roads, the city notes.

The 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. It also includes a lighted crosswalk between Stonegrove Overlook and the bridge over Johns Creek.
