Vilified years ago as a potential Hall County road project, the Northern Connector surfaced again last week — to some degree. A road spanning North Hall by connecting Thompson Bridge Road/Ga. 60 to Ga. 365 is still off the radar as a project. But it could be studied in another five years at an estimated $100,000 cost, according to a planning document discussed last week at the Gainesville-Hall Metropolitan Planning Organization’s Policy Committee meeting.
