Most of the project will be contained within the existing paved area.

The current roadway and bridge consists of two 12-foot-wide travel lanes plus one left turn lane in either direction. A new eastbound right turn lane is currently under construction by Cobb DOT to serve traffic heading to I-75 southbound ramps.
