The Cobb County Department of Transportation (Cobb DOT)
and the Cobb County School District (CCSD) are committed
to the safe and efficient movement of traffic and pedestrians
within Cobb County school zones. To improve traffic safety
and operations, both agencies have cooperated to create a new
and improved traffic flow for Lewis Elementary School (ES)
that will allow for greater on-site queuing and alleviate current
traffic backups on Jim Owens Road.
Beginning August 2021, the drop-off/pick-up line will be
double stacked, creating two one-way lanes. These lanes will
merge into one curbside lane at the actual student drop-off/
pick-up location. Vehicles will enter at the eastern driveway.
The western driveway will be gated (see map on the reverse
side for details).
New signs, pavement markings, and other traffic control
devices will be installed to guide traffic flow.
