Residents of Johns Creek who travel the 141 corridor have understood just how slow that ride can be. Some people, who have read what I have written on the cost of traffic delays have asked me what can be done, other than widening 141 to six lanes?
I have, on those occasions, suggested that it’s the side roads along the 141 corridor that need a bit of widening at the interchange rather than our entire corridor.
Here’s why:
Let’s take the intersection at the corner of Parson’s Road and 141 as our example. As configured today, has the typical one left turn lane, one right turn lane and one through lane as many of the intersections along the corridor have.
