Found a back road in Atlanta that shaves 15 minutes off my commute

I was stuck on I-85 every morning for like 6 months, sitting in traffic for 45 minutes to go 12 miles. Last week I tried Peachtree Industrial Boulevard past the Japanese market and took a left on Old Norcross Road instead. Now I get to work in under 30 minutes and save about $10 a week in gas. Anyone else got a secret alternate route that beats the highway mess?

@hannahm39's right about the Home Depot backup but I'm glad you found a better way.

Hard disagree, that road backs up like crazy past the Home Depot.

Oh man, I feel that... I once sat through three cycles of the light there just trying to turn left and I swear I aged a year.
