The Georgia Department of Transportation will be installing all-way stops at two major intersections in Franklin County.
The intersection at State Route (SR) 51 and SR 326 will be a four way stop with flashing stop signs.
The intersection of SR 8 and SR 145 will be a three-way stop with a flashing stop sign.
GTG Traffic Signals has been awarded the contracts and anticipates mid-April to be the start date for the traffic pattern changes.
Leading up to the switch, the Georgia DOT will install lighted message boards around both intersections. The messages will notify the general public about the brand new all-stop condition. These boards should remain for several weeks after the switch.
State transportation officials ask drivers who travel these areas to remain alert to the traffic pattern changes.
