Staff member says Johnson Ferry Road has reached permanent travel pattern; Mount Vernon Highway still needs utility work

A staff member said Johnson Ferry Road has reached its permanent travel pattern after recent work, with only utility work and punch-list items remaining between Roswell Road and Spruill Lane.

"We've unlocked the final configuration on Johnson Ferry Road," the staff member said, adding that after opening the route to two-way traffic only a small amount of finishing work remains.

The staff member said the stretch from Roswell Road to Spruill Lane now requires chiefly utility work and punch-list items, and that the road is operating in its permanent travel pattern. The update did not include dates for the remaining work or a contractor name.

The staff member also addressed Mount Vernon Highway, saying it is open to two-way traffic but still needs more utility work. "It's also open to two-way traffic, but there is still more utility work to finish up there, so it'll be a little longer before it reaches its final configuration," the staff member said.

No formal actions or votes were recorded in the transcript. The next steps described were completion of utility work and punch-list items; no timelines or specific completion dates were provided.
