Fayette County, Georgia – June 09, 2025. Construction is progressing well on the Starr’s Mill Tunnel Project and the tunnel remains on schedule to open before the start of the upcoming school year. The project will provide a safe crossing of Redwine Road for pedestrians, bicyclists, and golf carts and reduce traffic delay on Redwine Road by the elimination of an at-grade crossing.

To safely complete the paving phase of construction, a full road closure at the intersection of Redwine Road and Robinson Road is planned from Monday, June 16, 2025, through Friday, June 20, 2025.

New detour signs will be posted to direct drivers around the closed segment. The posted detour is approximately 3 miles and follows South Peachtree Parkway, Robinson Road, Holly Grove Road, and SR 74.

Fayette County is working closely with the contractor to provide current and accurate information to the public and will issue updates as appropriate. For questions, please contact Public Works at 770-320-6010 or [email protected].

This project (17TAI) is funded with Fayette County’s 2017 Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) program. Please visit the SPLOST website at https://fayettecountyga.gov/splost-2017/ for more information.
