add extra lanes from cumming to canton.

Make the intersection at Marketplace and at Nuckolls safer and also fix the mess of a ramp off 400N onto 20E so it is safer!

On Canton Patch:

How about they finish what they have started. The construction from Macedonia to Union hill has been going on forever. Recently, it doesn't appear that any work has been done. What is the hold up. The road is not currently safe to drive with all the temporary markings. Finish something sooner than later.

I agree with above comment - this work has been going on for 3 years nearly and no one has been on the job since November of last year. My vehicle has been dented and chipped from all un finished work. Find some company who can start and finish something in a timely fashon. Our tax payor monies is being WASTED!!!

20 will ultimately be like 93; the future 20 will be multi-lane limited access which will link I-75 to 400. Sorry about the dislocations folks! They call it "progress" in some places...
