South Fulton's Traffic Mess
Why Were These Approved?
I travel throughout South Fulton everyday on my way to work, school and home. I come across some of the strangest traffic anomolies especially in and around shopping centers in East Point and Union City.
My favorite traffic problems are the entrance into Camp Creek Marketplace near Chick-Fil-A and Ruby Tuesdays and the Union City WalMart parking lot. Let's start with the Market Place since I have pictures. Look closely at the photo below. An East Point Police has traffic cones out directing folks as they enter this badly planned entry point. Most days traffic is backed up to Camp Creek Parkway because folks don't know they have the right-of-way entering this center. Often drivers entering don't see the "Keep Traffic Moving" sign and are hesitate to cross the intersection against the cars sitting at the stop signs. Some days traffic backs up to I-285! East Point approved this and have done what they can to correct it over the last few years but it's not enough.
The next badly planned traffic feature is the WalMart shopping center in Union City. Entering the first entry after leaving Jonesboro Road will lead you into a row of parked cars forced to go left or right. The worst is when you are departing you can't go straight out towards the Quik Trip on your row. You will run into a curb and are forced to turn around and find the one exit from this corner of the lot which is to the west towards Sonics. This lot is badly designed I'm not sure why Union City approved it.

If the mall would invest in a traffic light, it would pay for itself if you factor in the business they lose because of traffic.

Yeah, I agree. That's a very viable means of regulating the traffic.

The MarketPlace Boulevard entrance from Camp Creek Parkway westbound is very poorly designed. I've contacted GDOT, EPPD, GSP and the CCMP owners about this -- because this is an accident waiting to happen. The MarketPlace Boulevard southbound exit to Camp Creek westbound should be closed, rerouting traffic onto Shelby Lane westbound, toward Lowe's and North Commerce Drive.
The Union City Wal-Mart parking lot, entrances and exits are just crazy. There is too much going on at the SR 138 entrance (QT/KFC). Both of those outbound lanes should be allowed to turn left, to alleviate traffic congestion.
Thanks for reading and be well.

I agree with Bryant . . .
His solution would relieve some of the traffic problem. But the real problem is with the people who should know better than to approve such shortsighted designs in the first place.

Another great post in this series C I'm finding that when I write a "better" headline I'm actually simply following your advice. Above all else C keeping it reader focused helps alot even if its a mediocre headline.

It's almost as if the developers didn't expect these centers to be popular. These centers should have designed multiple lanes and additional entrances/exits. I foresee a project to correct this problem in the eventual future.
