They're adding a much-needed third lane of traffic in each direction. A project like that takes a number of years. The last time we traveled to Florida (earlier this month) we had no troubles, but we were traveling on a Friday evening and a Sunday afternoon. My inlaws have run into lane closures when traveling during the day on weekdays.Originally posted by gdulaney
Has anybody been down 1-75 lately? Last August we hit so much construction that it added a couple of hours to the drive.
Actually, I think they do a fine job of only closing lanes when they are actually working. They open them up again at the end of the work day. Unlike permanently closed lanes during non-working hours in construction projects I've endured in other states.Nobody does construction better than the GA DOT.
Now THAT sounds like TDOT!Originally posted by Dave_from_Marietta
