The Board of Commissioners finally backed down and scrapped the Castleberry Road widening project. It took 209 of us to force them to admit their traffic data was garbage. Keep your eyes on these people because we need to make sure they do not try to sneak this disaster back …

We, the undersigned citizens of Forsyth County, Georgia, hereby request that the Forsyth County Board of Commissioners rescind the proposed $22 million dollar transportation project to widen Castleberry Road from Bethelview Road three miles north towards downtown Cumming, Georgia until a new traffic study can be performed by a new independent company. We feel that rescinding this project is necessary as there has been insufficient proof that this project should take priority over other transportation projects in the County and that the residents of Forsyth County have been mislead to the importance of this project.

Who actually signed off on this? Highway 9 needs the work way more than Castleberry ever did.

Too much growth already. Slow down the road crews and look at the real numbers.

Highway 9 widening is a better idea.
