Pine Mountain residents demand action on deteriorating Crawford Creek Road conditions

During a recent government meeting in Meriwether County, residents voiced urgent concerns about the deteriorating conditions of Crawford Creek Road, particularly its impact on local water drainage and accessibility. Cynthia Journey Dunlap, a long-time resident of November Lane, highlighted the ongoing issues that have persisted for years, including potholes and inadequate bus turnaround facilities.

Dunlap emphasized that the road's poor condition has led to significant water drainage problems, affecting the livelihoods of those living on November Lane. She expressed frustration over what she described as a misclassification of the road as private, which she believes has hindered necessary maintenance. According to Dunlap, historical records indicate that Crawford Creek Road was once a county-maintained road, and she called for immediate action to rectify the signage that labels it as private.

The community's concerns reflect a broader issue of infrastructure maintenance and accessibility in Meriwether County. Dunlap's plea for assistance underscores the need for local government to address these pressing road conditions, which not only affect transportation but also the quality of life for residents.

As the meeting concluded, it was clear that the discussion around Crawford Creek Road would require further attention from county officials to ensure that residents' needs are met and that the integrity of local infrastructure is maintained.
