Members of the Flowery Branch City Council grilled Hall County Public Works Director Ken Rearden on the McEver Road turn lane project at their meeting on Thursday, saying the existing intersection of McEver and Jim Crow roads was dangerous and the project pricey.
A delayed road project in Flowery Branch is forcing school buses to cross crowded roads “daredevil-style,” Mayor Mike Miller said at a City Council meeting Thursday night. Members of the City Council grilled Hall County Public Works Director Ken Rearden on the McEver Road turn lane project at their meeting on Thursday, saying the existing intersection of McEver and Jim Crow roads was dangerous and the project pricey. The $1.4 million joint project between Flowery Branch and Hall County would add left- and right-turn lanes and turn signals on the stop lights on all four sides of the intersection.
