The intersection of Hilderbrand Drive and Blue Stone Road in downtown Sandy Springs closed for construction on Dec. 7, with a reopening expected sometime in the winter.

The city is building a new extension of Blue Stone at that site as part of its nearby City Springs redevelopment.

All nearby businesses remain open and their driveways will be accessible, the city says. For detours and other information, see sandyspringsga.gov/roadwork.
