Pooler begins $4.4M roadway project at Parkway, Pine Barren intersection

POOLER, Ga. (WTOC) - The City of Pooler has begun work on a $4.4 million roadway improvement project at Pooler Parkway and Pine Barren Road.

The project was approved by city council in December and will expand about 3,200 feet of roadway.

The project also includes construction of new signals, sidewalks, a multi-use trail and drainage improvements. The city aims to improve traffic flow while preparing for long-term infrastructure developments.

Early work at the intersection is expected to have minimal impacts on traffic. However, more significant construction is expected to ramp up toward the end of the school year, according to a social media post by the city.

Traffic patterns may change as construction continues.
