Silver Comet Trail
Cobb County DOT maintenance crews are replacing the wooden boards on the Silver Comet Trail Bridge over the East-West Connector. Pedestrian traffic will have access through the construction site during the deck replacement.  Warning signage will be clearly posted on each approach to the bridge advising of construction activity.  Bicyclists should walk their bikes across the bridge for their own safety and that of the construction workers. Both pedestrians and bicyclists will be held by construction personnel until it is safe to cross. Since pedestrians and bicyclists continue to have access during the replacement work it will take from 45 to 60 days, weather permitting.
