Yeah that's right near my house

Atl infrastructure needs a serious revamp

Too many cars on these roads too consistently

Atl is supposed to have the 2nd worst traffic in the country behind LA

Low tax, low service state ran by Republicans that dont even live in the city. The state budget is controlled by Good Ole Boys who have no interest in bettering big black atlanta

These nikkas just need to fix the roads. Ain't no conspiracy

Considering how much money they charge you in state taxes you would think shyt like this wouldn't be an issue.

that traffic got the suburbs saying fukk it (Alpharetta making their own Atlantic Station, the new Stadium way out etc) it's like those folks said No fukking way I'm working 40 plus hours a week, fighting that traffic and getting in their car to go downtown anymore.

In the last few weeks, we've had a block of 85 catch on fire, a gas leak that fukked up I-20 , and this shyt. Good thing I mostly take the Marta everywhere

I remember making a thread on here around last year talking about moving downtown (I work downtown) and getting rid of the whip and people was acting like I was crazy. But that's why I don't listen to people. They don't know what the fukk they be talking about. Just got the condo on Peachtree st, moving in next month, and getting rid of the car. My job is less than 100 feet away from the condo

Naw, Atlanta roads just bad, when you got a million cars going across these roads daily combined with the heat then something is bound to happen

Now they're just paying attention to all of the little stuff happening after the big events the past couple of weeks.....sink holes happen in Florida pretty frequently (3,500+ found this year)....not necessarily underneath highways, but you get it...
