This project proposes to construct a Collector-Distributor (CD) roadway adjacent to northbound I-75 that would service the I-75 at I-285 interchange (Figure 1). This serves to improve traffic flow and safety for vehicles entering I-75 and those exiting onto I-285 . The proposed project would begin along I-75 at Forest Parkway Interchange and extend approximately 2.0 miles to I-75 at I-285 Interchange. Multiple improvements are also included under this proposed project. These
improvements include reconfiguration of the Forest Parkway at I-75 Interchange ramps and the I-285 at I-75 Interchange ramps, operational improvements to the I-75 corridor between Forest Parkway and I-285, and reconfiguration of the Frontage Road along the east side of I-75. Existing right-of-way (ROW) varies from approximately 200 feet on Forest Parkway to 2,200 feet at the I-75/I-285 interchange. Required ROW varies from an additional 24 feet to 80 feet beyond existing ROW.
