Sidewalk, fencing, banners and landscaping to come are all
part of a cooperative project between Gwinnett County, the Lake
Lucerne
Estates Civic Club, and the Highway 78 Community Improvement
District
Lake Lucerne fence upgrade
County, Homeowner, CID partnership
(Lawrenceville, Ga., Feb. 6,
2007) - Gwinnett County agreed Tuesday to upgrade
fencing along Lake Lucerne Road from chain link to
wrought iron as part of its project to add sidewalks and
make other safety improvements from Five Forks Trickum
Road to U.S. Highway 78. The cost of the upgrade will be
shared with the Highway 78 Community Improvement
District and the Lake Lucerne Estates Civic Club.
"This is a win-win situation for
everyone," said District 3 Commissioner Mike Beaudreau. "We
are improving the safety and appearance of the area by working
together for the common good."
Modifications to the design have also
allowed the old roadbed of Lake Lucerne Road to be used to replace
the Civic Club's parking that was taken away by the safety
improvements at Riverside Drive. Savings in other parts of the
project have allowed these improvements to be added with no increase
to the overall value of the construction contract.
Bruce Albea Contracting, Inc., is
building the $2.7 million project, funded primarily by the 1997 and
2001 SPLOST programs.
