Georgia State Route 400

Georgia Highway 400 (always known locally as Georgia 400) is a highway in the U.S. state of Georgia that goes from Atlanta at I-85 to Buckhead, Sandy Springs, Roswell, Alpharetta, Forsyth County, Dawson County, and Dahlonega. Like the interstate highways, it is a limited access road (with exit ramps instead of intersections), but unlike the interstates (which were renumbered by the GDOT in 2000), the exit numbers do not indicate mileage: they still go up sequentially one-by-one. Once 400 passes exit 17 (S.R. 306), it changes from a limited access highway into an at-grade divided highway.

The southern section of Georgia 400 (from I-285 to I-85) was built last, and is currently the only toll road remaining in Georgia. Built in the 1990s, this section was fought bittery by residents, who eventually ended up having their homes and large parts on their neighborhoods destroyed for the construction. Many remaining residents now live on dead end streets with significant noise pollution. Existing exits were renumbered up by four to accommodate the extension, which has a single toll booth in the middle of its length, accepting change or cruise cards. There is also currently no way to go from 400 south to 85 north or vice versa, except by a confusing route via Sidney Marcus Boulevard.

At one time, Georgia 400 was to connect to Interstate 675 in DeKalb County; however, the locals did not want the highway to cut through their neighborhoods and had the idea killed.
