Gwinnett commissioners recently awarded a $30-million contract to build a grade-separated interchange on State Route 316 at Harbins Road.

The project is about 3/4 mile long and will include a five-lane bridge on Harbins Road over SR 316. The new bridge will have dual westbound left-turn lanes, a single eastbound turn lane, and through lanes. The new interchange will have ramps eastbound and westbound as well as an access road to Sugarloaf Parkway. The project also includes an upgraded traffic management system, sidewalks, curbs and gutters, and retaining walls. The project is funded by the 2017 SPLOST program and is anticipated to be open to traffic by late 2021.
