Will the tunnel at Church – Commerce/E. Howard (from Agnes Scott to the Stone Mountain Trail) be open next week?
Yes
That does it. I’m breaking my cardinal rule to never visit YDFM on Sunday.
I am hoping that CSD has this info and will have moved the crossing guards to the crosswalk at the tunnel, but I have not heard anything.
Don’t crossing guards work for the City, not CSD? Either way, I hope proper adjustments are made.
