Part of Chestnut Street to close Feb. 24 - March 14

To complete the assembly of the remaining precast concrete elements on the new parking deck being built on the corner of First and Chestnut Streets, the contractor will close both lanes of Chestnut Street from First Street to the entrance of the Wells Fargo Parking Deck from Feb. 24 - March 14. Detour routes will be posted by the contractor. Access to the Forsyth County Government Center and the Chestnut Street parking lot (located across the street) will not be affected.

The closure of the westbound lane of First Street between Chestnut and Church streets is expected to continue through March 28. The deck is part of the county's plan for parking at the future Hall of Justice, which will be built beside the Government Center.
