Transportation Plan
October 2005 Project Fact Sheet
The Plan will identify the current need for transportation system improvements throughout the County, including
new and widened roads, turn lanes at intersections, traffic signals, safety improvements, sidewalks and bicycle
paths, and new and expanded public transportation services for commuters, seniors, and disabled individuals.
Special attention will be given to identifying the needed transportation projects that will be needed to serve newly
developing and expanding areas of the County. The Plan will also examine a range of possible financial resources
which could be used to fund the new transportation system improvements.
What does this growth mean to our transportation system in Henry County?
Based on current development patterns, the Atlanta Regional Commission
(ARC) estimates that this growth will result in:
• 82,000 additional households in the County;
• 250,000 additional vehicles traveling on the roadways in the
County; and
• 8,000,000 more vehicle miles of travel (VMT) each day.
• Identify a long-range vision for the entire County that is consistent with the needs and desires of its
residents.
• Develop specific planning goals and objectives to realize this vision that are jointly supported by Henry
County and its cities.
• Establish growth, development, and transportation policies that can be used by the County and its cities to
make this vision a reality.
• Identify specific transportation projects that will support the type of growth and development desired by the
citizens of Henry County.
