Forsyth voters approve transportation referendum
Placeholder Image
Forsyth County residents may see construction begin to thin traffic congestion along Ga. 400 and other sore spots by next year after a $200 million bond referendum to fund road projects passed in Tuesday’s election. Voters approved the measure by about a 63 percent to 37 percent split, with 34,764 votes in favor and 20,030 votes against. The decision likely will create a slight increase in property taxes for 20 years to pay off the bonds.
