Description
I have driven to about every major area in Georgia and the lights in this area are the worst I have seen. It should not take 30 minutes to leave this area to get to 285 and shouldn't take 10-30 minutes from 285 East Bound to get across to that diamond to get to McDonald's. You need to learn how the rural counties process traffic in high traffic areas. Cobb and Bartow Counties have twice the traffic and can get through 5 times the distance in half the time. Please make the lights run in sync and have the turn over time not take 5-10 minutes for one light. Another possible way to fix this is teaching the people down here how to drive correctly. I have been driving 23 and half years and the people down here drive like they are blind and @#$%. Get on it and fix this mess. 4 lights in Bartow County during rush hour takes 7 and a half minutes to go 2 miles with twice as many cars as this area.

We will monitor the coordinated timing of the signals as we do every day in the Perimeter area. It is likely that the longer delays experienced this morning were a result of heavier traffic and accidents in the area.
Ashford Dunwoody carries 49,000 vehicles per day which is higher than any secondary road in Bartow County and most roads in Cobb County. Extreme delays on Ashford Dunwoody are almost always a result of accidents or heavy congestion on I-285 not the timing of the signals.
