The City of Sandy Springs to Host Roberts Drive Side Path Public Open House
October 16, 2024
The City of Sandy Springs will hold a Public Information Open House to discuss the proposed Roberts Drive Multi-Use Side Path, aimed at enhancing safety for pedestrians and cyclists along Roberts Drive.
When: Monday, October 28, 5:30-7:30 p.m.
Where: Sandy Springs Middle School
8750 Pride Place, Sandy Springs, GA 30350
DETAILS:
This open house provides an opportunity for the public to view the proposed path alignment, ask questions, and offer feedback.
The project encompasses two phases of the multi-use side path, planned between the intersection of Roswell Road and Dunwoody Place, with connections to the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area. While existing sidewalks serve nearby residential and commercial areas, significant gaps in the network often force pedestrians to walk along the road. The proposed plan addresses these concerns by introducing three new mid-block pedestrian crossings, ensuring safer access to the path.
The Roberts Drive project is a key component of the Sandy Springs Trail Master Plan and Transportation Master Plan, which outline the city's broader strategy related to connectivity.
