They are putting in HOT lanes. It sucks right now but will be worth it in the end.

I don’t think anything the Georgia DOT has done lately has been worth a crap. One of the few successes was the diverging diamond on hwy 20. But downtown G town is awful. Their engineers have odd designs.

You're on crack. 400/285 has been shite for at least over fifteen years. It has sucked, forever. A clean shot from Lenox to Alpharetta is not great, but it's not bad. Anything that touches 285 is shite.

HOT lanes will fix "things" just like MARTA did.

Sidebar. I don’t know why but people that cross the double lines to get into the peach pass lanes absolutely make my blood boil. I see it all the time especially up in Gwinnett where 985/85 split (headed north).

Speaking as someone who worked on the early stages of these projects, the express toll lane projects GDOT is planning are a massive grift that won't actually fix the congestion problem (and will cost well into the $10+ billion mark). That money would be better used expanding MARTA.
