The only five streets in Suffolk still closed to the public because of the April 28 tornado will reopen Saturday morning.

They are in the Burnetts Mill subdivision, which was one of the areas where houses and buildings were destroyed when a tornado touched down in Suffolk.

Most of Burnetts Mill was reopened by Tuesday. The remaining streets — Kristen Lane, White Hall Arch, Eagle Point Crescent, Toddsbury Court and Elmington Way — will reopen at 7 a.m. Saturday, the city said Friday.
