Over the last few decades, Roswell’s growth led to overcrowded streets, difficult parking, and dangerous conditions for motorists and pedestrians alike. Just 40 years ago, Roswell was a sleepy Atlanta suburb. As the city grew and spread outside the Perimeter, many people, businesses, and traffic moved in.
The appeal of Roswell’s location is likely a direct result of its proximity to five state highways:
S.R. 400
S.R. 92
S.R. 9
S.R. 120
S.R. 140
Walking along or crossing these roadways or connecting streets is often extremely dangerous. Add the numerous parking lots, alleys, driveways, and other areas that people navigate on foot daily, and the high number of pedestrian accidents in Roswell is no surprise.
