Opening of New Lane on Ga. 400 Delayed

News

CUMMING — Commuters from Atlanta to Dawson, White and Lumpkin counties will have to wait a little longer for the third northbound lane of Ga. 400 to open. Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) officials, who expected to have the new lane between McFarland Parkway (Exit 12) and Peachtree Parkway (Exit 13) finished by September, now say it will be October.

The good news is they also expect to have the stretch between Peachtree Parkway and Bald Ridge Marina Road completed in October. Originally that portion of Ga. 400 was not expected to open until March.

Funding from the $47 million Georgia transportation SPLOST will pay for an additional lane on both sides of Ga. 400 from McFarland Parkway all the way to Browns Bridge Road.
