Georgia Governor Brian Kemp has proposed a $1.8 billion plan to expand toll express lanes on Interstate 75 in Atlanta's southern suburbs to reduce traffic congestion, aiming to add a lane in each direction and potentially increase traffic throughput by 70%. The funding will come from Georgia's $9 billion surplus and will also support improvements to other local roads and infrastructure projects. Kemp highlighted the importance of such investments to accommodate the growing population and economic activity in the Atlanta metro area.
