Re-paving efforts expected to start Aug. 5

Whitefield Street between Shelbourne Drive and Bull Street and Alleys 41 and 29D in the Savannah Green subdivision will be re-paved starting the week of Aug. 5, weather permitting.

Alleys currently closed (Alleys 31B, 31C, 31D, 40 and 32E) will be prepared for paving. Resurfacing of these alleys will follow the completion of Alleys 41 and 29D. No other alleys will be closed until these re-paving efforts are complete.

Thank you for your continued patience and understanding. Contractor crews and Town staff worked diligently to address schedule changes due to unforeseen circumstances and weather conditions. We understand the inconveniences this work has created. All want the work to be completed as quickly as possible.
