After Sunday night’s storms, many of Northeast Georgia’s powerlines sustained serious damage. Many are still in the process of being repaired— and one is on Toccoa Highway.
The highway, where several Habersham County Government offices are located, runs parallel to the Habersham County Fairgrounds, Administration Building, Animal Shelter, Public Works Department and Ruby Fulbright Aquatic Center. Due to the repairs, the road has been partially blocked off and traffic is being diverted through the Ruby Fulbright Aquatic Center parking lot.
Habersham County Emergency Management will be on-site to help with traffic.
The county asks drivers moving through this area to slow down, especially through the aquatic center’s parking lot, where children will be loading and unloading from cars for sports practices.
If you are going to be parking at the aquatic center tonight, for your safety and for continued traffic flow, the county advises parking behind the aquatic center.
