However, MARTA stops north and south of the intersection of Alpharetta Street/Hwy 9 and Green Street are still open and in service.
Starting July 28, Roswell officials said construction equipment and crews will start mobilizing on site to set up erosion control measures and preparing for the actual work to begin.
City officials said construction of the downtown parking deck is expected to be finished by summer 2026.
