ROAD CLOSURE
Beginning on June 1st, the portion of Senoia Road south of Rockwood/Crabapple will be closed to thru traffic. Contractors will be in the area for about four months preparing for the R/R crossing and Kedron Drive extension onto Senoia Road from MacDuff Parkway in Peachtree City.
Tyrone, Georgia is a residential community of approximately 7,000 residents located in Fayette County, about 25 miles south of Atlanta, Georgia. The land in the area originally belonged to the Creek Indians and was settled by Irish farmers in the late 1800’s. Some of the homes built by those first settlers are still occupied by their descendants.
Tyrone was incorporated on August 18, 1911, and the Town reportedly was named by the people who built the railroad here in 1907. The Scottish and Irish immigrants thought the topography reminded them of the area around County Tyrone in Ireland.
