Athens Mayor Raymond Shephard aims to arrange a meeting with city and state highway officials and the river relocation firm to study traffic remedies on Richland Avenue. Proposed options include another eastbound lane on Route 682 and widening exits to ease flow near the bypass. The university says a site building could be demolished anytime to improve traffic.
