Description

The expansive, lane-widening Project TS-108, set for 2023, that is designed for the corner of Dalrymple Road and Roswell Road, will dangerously impact the street-level safety of pedestrians, MARTA-riding North Spring Charter High School students, and bikers at that corner. Plus, it will greatly increase the traffic of heavy, speeding, commercial trucks (including numerous 18-wheelers!!) that are using the Dalrymple Road-Riverside Drive route as a shortened, speedy cut-through to Cobb County at Johnson Ferry.

Traffic-calming would be more favorably impacted by simply adding full traffic signals at the increasingly dangerous intersections of Dalrymple Road and Brandon Mill Road (at The Lost Corner Preserve) and of Dalrymple Road and Princeton Way (already with a flashing 'Vehicle Approaching" yellow light signal).

This Project TS-108 needs to be halted and more carefully evaluated as to it's hugely negative impact on citizen safety that will be caused by it's significantly increasing dangerous, speeding, commercial, cut-through truck traffic along the Dalrymple-Riverside route to Johnson Ferry Road.
