SR 53 FROM CS 921/AHALUNA DRIVE TO CS 966/SHALLOWFORD ROAD

under construction

The proposed project will improve congestion for northbound and southbound through movements on SR 53/SR 53 Conn. by connecting existing right-turn auxiliary lanes between Ahaluna Drive and Shallowford Road. This will create an approximate 0.83 miles segment with three through lanes in each direction. The proposed project will also modify the existing median on SR 53 at Beechwood Boulevard into an R-CUT median to prohibit eastbound left turns from Beechwood Boulevard onto SR 53. The proposed project will also install a dual R-CUT median at the existing median opening on SR 53 between the McEver Corners Shopping Center and the unnamed access road adjacent to Jackson EMC (1000 Dawsonville Hwy, Gainesville, Georgia 30501). This intersection is located between Beechwood Boulevard and McEver Road.
