TS191: Johnson Ferry Road and Mount Vernon Highway Improvements

The project aims to enhance vehicular and pedestrian mobility while reducing congestion by addressing bottleneck conditions affecting east-west traffic on Johnson Ferry Road and Mount Vernon Highway, as well as north-south traffic on Roswell Road.

The installation of continuous sidewalks on both sides of Johnson Ferry Road and Mount Vernon Highway will improve pedestrian mobility. Restoring Johnson Ferry Road and Mount Vernon Highway to two-way operation just east of Roswell Road will further eliminate the need for east-west traffic to rely on Roswell Road.

TS192: Mount Vernon Highway Corridor Improvements

The Mount Vernon Highway Corridor Improvements project will improve vehicular and pedestrian safety from the Sandy Springs Library to the Sandy Springs MARTA Station.

A multi-use path will be constructed on the south shoulder of Mount Vernon Highway, and six-foot-wide sidewalks will be constructed on the north side. New turn lanes will be added at the following intersections:

  • Glenridge Drive
  • Barfield Road
  • Crestline Parkway
  • Peachtree Dunwoody Road
  • Perimeter Center West

Traffic signal upgrades will also be included. Construction is estimated to take approximately two years to complete.

PATH400 Multi-Use Trail Extension (opens in new tab)

The PATH400 Multi-Use Trail will extend the existing 5.1-mile path from Loridans Drive north to the Georgia 400 and Interstate 285 interchange. The path will be built primarily within the existing Georgia Department of Transportation right-of-way along Georgia 400.

The extension will also provide connectivity to the proposed multi-use paths on Peachtree Dunwoody Road and Mount Vernon Highway.

Hammond Drive Improvements (opens in new tab)

The project will add a multi-use path along both sides of Hammond Drive, with dedicated pedestrian crossings at four locations between Roswell Road and Glenridge Drive, improving pedestrian and bicycle movement and safety in the area.

The proposed concept includes areas for green space between the roadway and multi-use paths, as well as along the south side of the new roadway. The Hammond Drive improvements will help better connect both sides of the Glenridge Hammond neighborhood by providing direct bicycle and pedestrian access from one side of Hammond Drive to the other through an underpass at Kayron Drive.
