Macedonia, Georgia

Macedonia Elementary underwent a significant renovation and a new schoolhouse was built in 1997 to accommodate growth of the local population.

Its main intersection is with East Cherokee Drive, which runs from south of Ball Ground to north of Woodstock along a high-growth corridor.

With the route being exclusively a two-lane road from I-575 to well into Forsyth County, the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) has indications to widen the highway within a "long-range" plan.

Since then the northern bypass plan was scrapped and the Church was moved a mile or so north on East Cherokee Road.

The Northern Arc was discussed in the late 1990s and early 2000s as a bypass for I-285 in Atlanta and Highway 20 in Bartow, Cherokee, and Forsyth Counties.
