Traffic study says Mid Broadwell closure would raise delays at several intersections; staff proposes targeted fixes and a pilot closure

Mar 11, 2024

A traffic study for the District Mayfield found that closing a Mid Broadwell segment would increase delay at a subset of intersections (notably intersections 6, 7 and 8) by 2033; staff recommended a slip lane at one roundabout, a small roundabout at another intersection, coordination with Alpharetta, and a pilot temporary closure to collect data.

The full story

Rob Del Ross, the city's engineering program manager, presented results of a traffic analysis focused on the Mid Broadwell closure recommended in the District Mayfield plan. The study compared 2023 baseline conditions to a 2033 build scenario that includes background growth (assumed about 1% annually), committed nearby developments and trips generated by the District's planned buildout.
