Yet another alternative emerged Wednesday night in the ongoing saga of how to lessen the impact of the planned Exit 14 in South Hall on the mostly residential Martin Road. The new proposal, unveiled at a Martin Road Corridor Study Stakeholder Committee meeting, would remove Hall County’s long-term plans to widen Martin Road from Atlanta Highway/Ga. 13 to Winder Highway/Ga. 53. And it calls for building left and right turn lanes at Martin Road and Ga. 13 — or at the new Interstate 985 interchange — so that traffic would not be able to go straight on Martin Road from Exit 14, or vice versa.
