FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — Residents along one of Forsyth County’s few remaining gravel roads say they are concerned about traffic impacts from a planned subdivision and highway exit. Ann Garvin, a resident who has lived on Tidwell Road since 1990, said a near 1-mile portion of the road has remained unpaved since she began living there. She said she is worried the creation of a subdivision and opening of a Ga. 400 exit at McGinnis Ferry Road could bring dangerous traffic.
