Freemanville closes today — and so does Mid-Broadwell. Both routes, same morning.

Starting today, Freemanville Road closes at the Cooper Sandy Creek crossing while GDOT replaces the bridge. The State agency says 150 days, weather permitting — basically the entire school summer plus most of the fall semester. Bring a podcast.

Detours. Birmingham Highway, Providence Road, and Mayfield Road will pick up the through-traffic. Plan for noticeably heavier loads on all three, especially during morning drop-off and the 5–6 PM crunch. Signage will mark the closure point and detour routes; the GDOT map (PDF) shows the closure in red and detour in orange.

The catch. Mid-Broadwell Road also shuts today — separate City of Alpharetta project, same Tuesday. If your usual commute hits both, give yourself an extra 10–15 minutes this morning while you figure out the new normal. The two closures don't share a planning conversation; they just share a calendar.
