I-75 Widening
21-400
Given the high truck volume merging at I-75/I-40 and truck weigh station and Watt Road truck stops, there is an excessively high amount of slow moving trucks. This is further worsened on I-40 Eastboard (east of merger) where trucks have to cross lanes from right lane of I-40 to far right lane of merged I-40/I-75. This causes frequent wrecks, major delays, and sudden stops at the merger alone. From there, the incline east of Watt Road to the weigh station needs additional truck lanes due to the incline grade.
