ROSWELL, Ga. — The Roswell City Council approved an $8.4 million construction contract Jan. 13 for an ambitious project to reduce traffic congestion on Holcomb Bridge Road. Council members unanimously approved a $8,370,324 contract to Summit Construction & Development as part of the first phase of the Big Creek Parkway project. Proposed more than 15 years ago, the parkway would create an alternative east-west route across Ga. 400 to relieve traffic along Holcomb Bridge Road, which is the city’s only access to the freeway and carries more than 70,000 vehicles a day. The city received five bids for the project, selecting the lowest bidder. The project received $7.9 million in funding from the Transportation Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax. The city has authorized up to $8.8 million for the construction. Dual left-turn lanes will be built on three of the four approaches at Holcomb Bridge Road and Warsaw Road. Warsaw Road will be widened from two lanes to four from Holcomb Bridge Road to just north of Bainbridge Road. The widening will accommodate the project’s second phase, which will create a route from Warsaw Road east over Ga.
