Main Street/Ga. 284 in Clermont will be partially closed as the Georgia Department of Transportation replaces a damaged drainage pipe.

The damaged pipe had caused the road to begin to shift, requiring an immediate repair, officials said.

The road will be closed at W.R. Strickland and Sons Funeral Home until 1 p.m. today as workers dig to remove the damaged pipe, install a new one, then rebuild the roadway.

A detour is in place directing drivers traveling north on Ga. 284 to stay on Ga. 11/U.S. 129/Cleveland Highway to Ga. 283 into Clermont and back on Ga. 284. Drivers traveling south on Ga. 284 would take Ga. 283 to Ga. 11 to resume travel on Ga. 284.
