I-285 Issues - PIB Express Lane Access and Exit 30. Council was recently notified of a fatal accident on Westbound I285 at North Peachtree Road and I expressed frustration with the PIB exit to 285 and the crossing of cars exiting 285 at exit 30, North Peachtree Road. I believe this exit entrance needs to be modified and better marked.
Back in 2020, I raised a concern to GDOT on the lack of the top end express lanes coming from or to PIB a major state road that handles thousands a vehicles a day and the update from GDOT stated that they were not thinking it was needed.
• Peachtree Industrial Boulevard Access
Existing general purpose (GP) interchanges are not generally considered
for arterial access ramps to and from express lanes (EL) in order to
avoid potential operational impacts of combining GP and EL traffic into a
single location. Under the build condition, drivers would use the
direct merge on I-285 at North Shallowford Road to move from the GP
lanes to the EL system in order to reach destinations west of Peachtree
Industrial Boulevard, such as the Perimeter area and Cobb County.
Essentially, drivers could still use northbound or southbound Peachtree
Industrial Boulevard as they do today, merge onto I-285 heading west,
and then almost immediately enter the EL system at the direct merge to
travel westward without using local streets. The reverse commute would
be similar for drivers traveling northbound or southbound on Peachtree
Industrial Boulevard wanting to go in the eastbound direction of I-285.
In February of 2021, Council was briefed by GDOT and this issue was raised once again by numerous Council members with a statement from GDOT that this issue would be revisited for possible addition. Not hearing back from GDOT, now a year later, on Monday the Dunwoody City Council will once again discuss this and other issues to make sure the State is aware of our long term concerns also request a review of short term tweaks if appropriate.
