The proposed project plans include widening Abbotts Bridge Road from two to four lanes from Medlock Bridge Road/Ga. 141 in Johns Creek to Peachtree Industrial Boulevard in Gwinnett County. The 2.5-mile project includes the replacement of the existing bridge over the Chattahoochee River and sidewalks on both side of the roadway.

Plans also call for improvements along Parsons, Wilson and Boles Road, and installing a roundabout at the Parsons-Wilson Road intersection.
