Clearly? You haven't presented any stats towards that end at all. If you're going to make that sort of claim, you need to present traffic counts for both cities. That link you posted has nothing at all to do with your claim.

I should have specified. I wasn't referring to 185. I meant 85 running from Atlanta to Montgomery (though it doesn't pass through Columbus itself)

But again, I also said I could believe what was said that there is more traffic on 20 between Atlanta and Columbia versus 85 between Atlanta and Montgomery.

Either way, this is sounding like a pissing contest on which city gets the most thru-traffic. Sounds pretty ridiculous to me!

That's laughable. 280 is one of the busiest highways in the United States. You can see that from the video I posted.

You can also see from the maps and stats provide by numerous posters that Augusta gets more traffic...just accept it and move on.

That's through the interstate. Not on the street HIGHWAYS that goes through the city.
