SR 54 & SR 74 Intersection Project

UPDATED: 11/4/2022- The DOT informed the City that the Displaced Left-Turn project at the intersection of SR 54 and 74 were in the right-of-way acquisition process. Currently, the DOT has acquired right-of-way from four parcels, two parcels have had offers made (waiting on reply) and three parcels are still outstanding. Reappraisals on the three outstanding parcels are ongoing and anticipated to be complete in mid-December so negotiations on those are on hold for now.

The design of the intersections is basically complete and the time frame to put out to bid is in the “spring”. Staff will give updates along the way as things proceed.

UPDATED 1/24/2020: Information on the Open House held on January 23 by the Georgia Department of Transportation on the plans for the Displaced Left Turn (DLT) can be found on the Engineering/Transportation Plans page. Comments may be provided through Thursday, February 6, 2020, by following the directions listed on the page.

Peachtree City continues to work closely with the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) to ensure that the intersections and traffic control devices are performing as designed to maximize traffic flow on our highways, and we are committed to keeping the traffic flow for our businesses and residents a top priority in the coming years.

LONG-TERM GDOT PLANS

The GDOT is looking to 2020 and beyond for improvements to the Highway 54/74 Intersection in Peachtree City and will install a Continuous Flow/Dedicated Left Turn Intersection is programmed for 2020/2021. This design can significantly increase the traffic volume that an intersection can handle. View an example of a proposed Continuous Flow Intersection planned for Florida.
