Gwinnett Commissioners voted recently to execute an agreement with the Georgia Department of Transportation for the acquisition of right of way for the Ga. 140/Jimmy Carter Boulevard at U.S. 23/ Ga. 13/Buford Highway intersection improvement project.

This agreement outlines the requirements for Gwinnett to acquire right of way on roads maintained by GDOT. The plan includes a new left turn lane on Buford Highway and the expansion of Jimmy Carter Boulevard from 4 to 6 lanes Buford Highway to West Peachtree Street.

Funding for the land purchase comes from Norcross, Peachtree Corners and Gwinnett.
