While surfing the Georgia DOT website last night, I came across one of their newest projects, the Peachtree Boulevard (Buckhead) Construcion Project.
The project, a part of the Governor's Fast Forward Program, involves the stretch of Peachtree Road (Georgia 141) in the City of Atlanta's upscale Buckhead community from Shadowlawn to Roxboro/Peachtree Dunwoody Roads. For a map of the general vicinity affected, please see the Map of Peachtree Blvd Project Vicinity (Yahoo! Maps)

In short, the project will not only involve road-improvements per-se, but also much-needed improvements to accomodate pedestrians, in addition to aesthetic landscape improvements such as trees and plants in the median.

In other Georgia road news...
The State Transportation Board and the State Road and Tollway Authority have adopted a joint resolution to study the feasibility of constructing Truck Only Toll lanes from the Port of Savannah to I-16 and I-95. The Federal Highway Administration has already given them a $472,000 grant for this particular study.
That's all for now. Thanks for visiting and please come back again.
