Work includes resurfacing and multi-purpose path

Walton County Public Works advises that the west segment of Chat Holley Road between County Highway 393 and Nellie Drive in Santa Rosa Beach will be closed to through traffic beginning 6 a.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 12 until further notice.

This closure signals the beginning of major work on Chat Holley Road which will include a variety of resurfacing, restoration of the road base, addition of a multi-purpose path on the north side of the road, stormwater and utility improvements.  The entire project will last throughout much of the year with work being done on different segments along the road.

Detour routes will be well marked for the closed area.  East bound through traffic is encouraged to use County Highway 393 to East Nursery Road to Nellie Drive and back down to Chat Holley Road.  West bound through traffic should use Nellie Drive to East Nursery Road to County Highway 393.

Travelers in this area are encouraged to use caution and be alert for roadwork and machinery in the area.  Questions may be addressed to Walton County Public Works at 892-8108.
