Description
Inaccurate sign on entrance ramp to I-75 N (from Jodeco Rd)
The sign "right lane ends" is not accurate and should be changed to "Left Lane Ends." The far-right entrance lane continues when entering from Jodeco Rd (westbound). Actually, the left lane ends after vehicles enter the on-ramp from the left (turn) lane after traveling eastbound on Jodeco Rd, and the painted markings on the lanes so indicate - requiring traffic from the left lane to merge right.
Similar to other entrance ways that desire to keep traffic moving, I also recommend adding a sign stating "Keep Moving" (or similar acceptable signage) near the on-ramp entrance for vehicles that enter the on-ramp and occupy the right-most lane.
I originally submitted this action to GDOT (via their website) on 2/21/2018; no action has been taken to date to remedy the issue. GDOT responded on 2/21/2018 indicating it was a "Valid complaint" and "Your inquiry will be sent to your specific Georgia DOT district department (District 3) that covers your area. A district representative will contact you in to the matter in efforts to resolve the issue."
I submitted a subsequent inquiry to the GDOT Customer Service email address on 7/8/2018 resulting in no response.
I am now submitting this request to you in hopes a more local (Henry County) activity which has a vested interested in the safety of its citizens can obtain results.
Thanks much!

A. (incorrect) "Lane ends" sign I marked "missing" (in the required "Is the sign missing or damaged" option below) because that was the closest option to the issue. A sign is present, but is not correct based on the lane markings requiring traffic to merge into the right lane of the I-75 entrance ramp.
A. missing
A. I-75 North entrance lane after entering from Jodeco Rd.

HCDOT has reported this to GDOT- I spoke with Tyron and he assured me that he would be getting all this information to the District office!
