A stretch of Bells Ferry Road is closed after a vehicle crashed into a power pole, according to the Cherokee Sheriff’s Office.
The crash happened between Wyngate Parkway and Surrey Drive, where officials say the pole was left damaged and leaning over the roadway.
Drivers are being asked to avoid the area and use alternate routes, including Surrey Drive, Wyngate Parkway and Towne Lake Parkway.
Crews are working to replace the pole, a process expected to take about eight hours. Authorities warn motorists to expect significant delays until the roadway is fully reopened.
