New traffic signals go live next week on SR 204 at Old River Road
SAVANNAH, GA - Georgia DOT announces Tuesday, June 23 activation of a new signalized intersection on SR 204 at Old River Road in Chatham County.

The new signalized intersection is permitted through a special encroachment permit to Chatham County for the signal installations. Contractors have installed and bagged the new signals. Message boards are in placed to alert motorists of this new traffic signal location and activation date.

Local law enforcement will handle traffic control during activation to enhance safety. Motorists are advised to always proceed cautiously through this intersection, but most certainly so next week during activation and the days to follow as drivers become acclimated to the new signal. This signal activation is weather contingent and subject to change.

Advisory: Motorists are advised to expect delays, exercise caution, and reduce their speed while traveling through work zones. Before heading out, get real-time information on work status and traffic conditions. Call 511, visit 511ga.org, or download the Georgia 511 app.
