Here’s the designed plan for the roundabout. MARK ENGEL/STAFF
Above: The busiest intersection at the lake in Greene County is where Highway 44 meets Linger Longer Road. Sometime in the next three to five years, the traffic lights will be removed and a multi-lane roundabout will be constructed as part of the project to widen Lake Oconee Parkway.

The Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) has just posted an official design for the much discussed and frequently feared roundabout to be constructed at the intersection of Highway 44/Lake Oconee Parkway and Linger Longer Road.
It will replace the current traffic signals at the major intersection cornered by BankSouth, Wells Fargo and the CVS drug store.
