Dunwoody News: Mt. Vernon Construction, Sustainability, and Dunwoody at Dusk.

Stormwater Project on Mt. Vernon Road

The City of Dunwoody Public Works Department will be replacing three deteriorating storm drain lines beneath Mt. Vernon Road between Dunwoody Village and Mount Vernon Way.  

The road closure is planned to begin Friday July 12, 2013 at approximately 7 p.m. with the City’s contractors working around the clock to complete the work and reopen the road before 5 a.m. Monday, July 15, 2013.

The City asks for your patience as minor traffic delays may occur during the week of July 15 to allow for re-paving of the trenches created by this project.  These dates and times are subject to change pending weather conditions and any unforeseen conditions during construction. 

Residents and businesses whose sole access is from Mt Vernon Road will be allowed to access through the construction zone, with delays likely to occur.  Access to adjacent neighborhoods and through travel on Mount Vernon will be detoured via Chamblee Dunwoody Road, Womack Road and Vermack Road.
