Gainesville motorists may have noticed traffic counters on city roads recently, including one in front of the new Chick-fil-A restaurant on Ga. 53/Dawsonville Highway. It doesn’t mean any road improvements are imminent. “Traffic counters were placed to assist in evaluating the impact that the development of the area has had on traffic flow,” said Stan Aiken, the city’s senior civil engineer, referring specifically to Ga. 53.
