Up to 120-day detour planned on Barrett Mill Road

The replacement of a failing cross-drain that carries Flat Creek under Barrett Mill Road in White County will result in a detour beginning next week and lasting up to four months.

White County Director of Public Works Derick Canupp said the detour for Barrett Mill Road will begin Tuesday, Oct. 25, and could be in place for up to 120 days, depending on the weather.

The detour to reach locations west of the creek will follow Duncan Bridge Road to Ga. 254, then back onto Barrett Mill Road.

Similarly, the detour to reach locations east of the creek, including Maxwell Drive, will follow Ga. 254 to Duncan Bridge Road then back onto Barrett Mill Road.
