So, another "evaluation" has been made for the Ga. highways 54-74 area in Peachtree City, finding that it will meet the traffic ordinance. Maybe, like some weather forecasters should, they should stick their heads out window and take a look.

No left or right turn lanes will help on those two-lane highways. Add the traffic that two big-box stores will contribute and 54-74 will be gridlock.

Or maybe they should take a ride to the Pavilion which has two four-lane highways and traffic is still heavy. Oh, well, I can always take Hwy. 74 to I-85 and go south to get to Newnan.
