gallons of fuel are expected to be saved by reducing the
waste of engines idling in traffic congestion.
Almost one year after the opening of the new toll lanes,
Cobb leaders announced that the federal government
would kick in the final $5 million to complete funding
for a nearly $44 million ramp that would connect the
lanes to Cumberland. The Cumberland Community
Improvement District in past years had spearheaded the
effort to build a ramp at Akers Mill Road aimed at giving
drivers commuting through the area access to the lanes.
The lack of a ramp at Akers Mill requires drivers who
wish to access the toll lanes to cut across four to five
lanes of traffic. Construction of the ramp is expected
to begin in 2021 and be completed in 2023, which CID
Executive Director Kim Menefee said will aid the district
that serves as one of the top job centers in the state with
more than 100,000 daily commuters.
Metro Atlanta’s interstates are scheduled to see more
toll lanes constructed in the years to come. One proposed
effort, the I-285 top-end express lane project, would construct
express lanes along I-285 from west of Paces Ferry
Road in Cobb County to Henderson Road in DeKalb
County, and a section along SR 400 from south of the
Glenridge Connector to the vicinity of the North Springs
MARTA Station.
“I think it’s going to be a good project,” said Cobb
Commissioner Bob Ott. “Traffic has already decreased
with the northwest extension project. Commute times
have been reduced. So I think this will just add to reducing
travel time, especially since it will be connected to
the new managed lanes. This (project) has a lane in each
direction, so it will be even more (of a) benefit because it
will be in both directions all day long.”
