Gwinnett and the Georgia Department of Transportation are seeking public input on a joint Comprehensive Corridor Study along 1-85. The study area will cover about 18 miles, stretching from I-285 to the I-85/I-985 split.

The interactive study will look for solutions to reduce congestion, enhance traffic operations, and improve safety in the area. Among the survey tasks, participants are asked to rank the importance of six interests including: improving freight movement, supporting local communities, considering multiple modes of transportation, improving traveler safety, improving vehicle travel and supporting Georgia’s economy.
