DALTON, Ga. — Plans to streamline traffic flow around College Drive in Dalton have gotten a boost as the Georgia Department of Transportation pledged to fund all construction costs.
The project, first proposed in 2007’s Transportation SPLOST plan, will create a roundabout at the juncture of Walnut Street, College Drive and Dug Gap Mountain Road on the west side of Interstate 75 where there now is a stop sign.
It also will include an entrance and exit ramp for I-75 southbound, an addition in the second round of designs that secured state support.
