A citizens transportation group Thursday recommended making the widening of Dawsonville Highway/Ga. 53 — one of Gainesville’s busiest roads — a short-term project. The project, now part of Gainesville’s transportation plans, calls for widening the four-lane road to six lanes between Shallowford Road and Ahaluna Drive. “I argue that it ought to keep going, but let’s get there,” said Brent Hoffman, a member of the Citizens Advisory Committee.
