(Forsyth County, GA) Drivers in Forsyth County might encounter some traffic delays on SR 400 near SR 369 this week.

The Forsyth County government posted an alert on its Facebook page on Friday, February 3 saying there might be some traffic delays due to road projects on SR 369 (Browns Bridge Road), the new SR 400 interchange and SR 9.

From Monday, February 6 through Wednesday, February 8, traffic disruptions can be expected on SR 400 Northbound near SR 369 due to paving on the right shoulder.

The post said the construction may cause disruptions in traffic flow, intermittent lane closures and traffic pacing.
