Rabun Roads Looking Good

Darren Giles of the Rabun County Road Department says that many roads throughout the county are in good shape today…

“Generally all the roads look pretty good. The side roads that are on the north side of the mountains were still pretty slick, and that’s the ones we tried to hit this morning. As far as overnight, we’re just, you know, bracing to see what this does today, just kind of sitting back and mainly gearing up for the cold.”

Giles adds that there are some key areas that are still seeing icy conditions…

“Shady Lane, Davis Gap, those type of areas, especially on the north side of those mountains is where most of your black ice, snow, and ice is still frozen on the roads, those are the main areas.”

You should proceed with caution if traveling in areas of higher elevations.
