(Forsyth County, GA) The new ADA-accessible parking lot at the Forsyth County Courthouse is now open. The parking lot is located on the north side of the building on East Main Street in downtown Cumming.

The Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office posted the update on its Facebook page on Wednesday, November 30.

Five parking spaces were added next to the building for easier accessibility for those with Disabled Persons Parking Placards.

The area where the parking lot was built, along with one lane of traffic, was closed in August of this year for the construction project.
