There are very few bridges on this river. if you look north east form 285 exit 31, there are only 4 bridges (total 5 lanes) on this river, while both sides of this river between 400 and 85 are densely populated. They need to make Pleasant Hill/State Bridge and Hwy 20 as controlled access roads. The other problem is too many signals. They make 3 lane road and then a signal every 200 yards, defeating the whole purpose. Need to make more access roads. Chattahoochee river divides norther portions of metro Atlanta.

A lot of the cars you see that are adding to the traffic problem in Atlanta have tags from the northern part of the country and Canada or Florida and they are driving through Atlanta right at rush hour.
