I am amazed at what people think is bad traffic. Traffic here really is nothing even in high season. Only time I have seen issues on 301 is when there is a wreck or holiday traffic on the turnpike as people cut over to 44 to get to 75 north. Otherwise it is a breeze going on 301. I am south of 44 and travel 301 often. The extension of Marsh Bend will mainly be used by those in Marsh Bend and DeLuna. Now these residents go to Warm Springs and over to 301, so really no increase when it opens up other than the new homes. 301 from the turnpike south to Coleman is supposed to be expanded to 4 lanes at some point in the future.
