The part of the road that will be closed is not in front of the school, it should be a little south of the exit. I am pretty sure both the entrance and exit of College Heights will be clear. You just won’t be able to turn right out of the exit. You will have to turn left and either take South McDonough St. heading towards Hill St or take Griffin Circle to get to Brower St and Candler Road.

It’s hard to tell on this map but the school is at that small stretch from Garland Ave to Griffin Circle, the two one way streets looping around the park across from the school.

Um, or they could just correct the mistake. Do heads really need to roll?

I guess Decatur Minute isn’t THAT all-knowing, since they have Oakview going all the way to Candler and College Pl. intersecting w/ E. Hill. St.
Whoever made this map should be replaced by someone who knows how to make maps, and knows the community.

Looks like it’s just south of the school.

There’s an entrance/exit at Garland – which is just north of the closure, I imagine they’ll be using that one or have another contingency in place.

You’re right. Is the work being done directly in front of CH?

Help….it looks like the detour is around College Heights. I normally drive down S. McD, then turn into the parking lot of the school – but it looks like the street is closed from one side of the drive to the other…how am I supposed to drop of in the morning? Do I just need to wait until next week to see?
