'''State Route&nbsp;141''' ('''SR&nbsp;141''') is a {{convert|34.1|mi|km|adj=mid|-long}} [[State highway (US)|state highway]] that runs southwest-to-northeast in the [[Northwest Georgia|northwest part]] of the [[U.S. state]] of [[Georgia (U.S. state)|Georgia]]. It connects the [[Buckhead (Atlanta)|Buckhead]] area of [[Atlanta]] with [[Cumming, Georgia|Cumming]]. Its routing exists within portions of [[Fulton County, Georgia|Fulton]], [[DeKalb County, Georgia|DeKalb]], [[Gwinnett County, Georgia|Gwinnett]], [[Forsyth County, Georgia|Forsyth]] [[County (United States)|counties]].

==Route description==
[[File:GA State Route 141 in Peachtree Corners.jpg|thumb|State Route 141 in [[Peachtree Corners, Georgia|Peachtree Corners]]]]
SR&nbsp;141 begins at an [[Intersection (road)|intersection]] with [[U.S. Route 19 in Georgia|US&nbsp;19]]/[[Georgia State Route 9|SR&nbsp;9]] (Roswell Road NE) in the [[Buckhead (Atlanta)|Buckhead neighborhood]] of [[Atlanta]], in [[Fulton County, Georgia|Fulton County]]. It travels to the northeast to an intersection with [[Georgia State Route 237|SR&nbsp;237]] (Piedmont Road NE). Just after that intersection, it goes over, but does not have an [[Interchange (road)|interchange]] with [[Georgia State Route 400|SR&nbsp;400]] (T. Harvey Mathis Parkway). Immediately after is the southern terminus of [[Georgia State Route 141 Connector (Atlanta)|SR&nbsp;141 Connector]] (Lenox Road NE). The highway passes just northwest of the Buckhead Heights neighborhood, crosses into [[DeKalb County, Georgia|DeKalb County]], and passes through [[Brookhaven, Georgia|Brookhaven]]. SR&nbsp;141 passes [[Oglethorpe University]] and the Peachtree Golf Club, just before passing through [[Chamblee, Georgia|Chamblee]]. In [[Doraville, Georgia|Doraville]], it has an intersection with [[Georgia State Route 13 Connector (Doraville)|SR&nbsp;13 Connector]] and an interchange with [[Interstate 285 (Georgia)|Interstate 285]] (I-285). The road becomes a freeway on the northeast of the interchange, served by a pair of [[one-way traffic|one-way]] [[frontage road]]s with "[[Texas U-turn]]s"; it has a few exits along its length. It enters [[Gwinnett County, Georgia|Gwinnett County]] near the middle of the freeway; near the end of the freeway is [[Georgia State Route 140|SR&nbsp;140]] where it is called Peachtree Parkway. It passes through [[Peachtree Corners, Georgia|Peachtree Corners]]. Then, it crosses over the [[Chattahoochee River]] back into Fulton County. It travels through [[Johns Creek, Georgia|Johns Creek]] and meets [[Georgia State Route 120|SR&nbsp;120]] (Abbotts Bridge Road). Northeast of there, it enters [[Forsyth County, Georgia|Forsyth County]]. The roadway curves to the northwest and then to the north. It has an interchange with US&nbsp;19/SR&nbsp;400 (Hospitality Highway), southwest of [[Cumming, Georgia|Cumming]]. Until 2020, SR 141 ended just to the northwest at SR 9, but it was extended north on Bethelview Road where it now ends at [[Georgia State Route 20|SR 20]].  [[Georgia State Route 371|SR 371]] was removed from the state highway system as a mileage swap in order to add Bethelview Road to the state highway system.{{citation needed|date=September 2021}}

All of SR&nbsp;141 from its southern terminus in Buckhead to a point southwest of [[Duluth, Georgia|Duluth]] is part of the [[National Highway System (United States)|National Highway System]], a system of roadways important to the nation's economy, defense, and mobility.<ref name="NHS Georgia">{{cite web|title=National Highway System: Georgia|url=https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/planning/national_highway_system/nhs_maps/georgia/ga_georgia.pdf|publisher=United States Department of Transportation|date=October 1, 2012|access-date=June 28, 2013}}</ref>

It is known as '''Lenox Road NE''', as well as [[Paul Coverdell]] Memorial Parkway, for its entire length. It was built in the early 1990s in conjunction with [[Georgia State Route 400|SR&nbsp;400]] to serve area businesses and offices.

It begins at an [[Intersection (road)|intersection]] with the SR&nbsp;141 mainline (Peachtree Road NE) just northwest of the Buckhead Heights neighborhood of Atlanta. The highway heads northwest, curves to the west-southwest underneath, where it crosses SR&nbsp;400 (T. Harvey Mathis Parkway) with a [[single-point urban interchange]]. It curves to the southwest to meet its northern terminus, an intersection with [[Georgia State Route 237|SR&nbsp;237]] (Piedmont Road NE), at the [[Buckhead Forest]] neighborhood of Atlanta.<ref name="Google Atlanta Conn"/>

SR&nbsp;141 Conn. is not part of the [[National Highway System (United States)|National Highway System]], a system of roadways important to the nation's economy, defense, and mobility.<ref name="NHS Georgia"/>

}}'''State Route 141 Connector (SR 141 Conn.)''' is a .8 mile long (1.3&nbsp;km) connecting route of SR 141 that exists entirely within [[Gwinnett County, Georgia|Gwinnett County]]. It is just west of [[Norcross, Georgia|Norcross]]. The route at [[Georgia State Route 140|SR 140]] (Jimmy Carter Boulevard) and goes north along a [[frontage road]] parallel to SR 141/Peachtree Industrial Boulevard. After the split of SR 141 and Peachtree Industrial Boulevard, SR 141 Conn. merges with Peachtree Industrial Boulevard. The route then turns left onto Holcomb Bridge Road and ends at the intersection of Holcomb Bridge Road and SR 141. The route connects traffic from SR 140 to SR 141 north, since there is no direct entrance ramp between these two roads. SR 141 Conn. south does not exist because traffic can exit from SR 141 south directly to SR 140.

'''Peachtree Industrial Boulevard''' is a road in the U.S. state of [[Georgia (U.S. state)|Georgia]] that begins in [[Chamblee, Georgia|Chamblee]] and ends in [[Buford, Georgia|Buford]]. Between [[Interstate 285 (Georgia)|Interstate 285]] and [[Georgia State Route 140|SR&nbsp;140]] (Jimmy Carter Boulevard), the road is concurrent with SR 141. North of SR 140, in Peachtree Corners, Peachtree Industrial Boulevard splits from SR 141 and continues to the northeast as a highway with at least four lanes and center median, traveling through the cities of [[Peachtree Corners, Georgia|Peachtree Corners]], [[Duluth, Georgia|Duluth]], [[Suwanee, Georgia|Suwanee]], [[Sugar Hill, Georgia|Sugar Hill]], and Buford. The portion of the road concurrent with SR 141 is maintained by the state; the rest is maintained by Gwinnett County.<ref name="City of Duluth">{{cite web |title=Street Maintenance |url=http://www.duluthga.net/departments/public_works/street_maintenance.php |publisher=City of Duluth |access-date=December 29, 2013 }}</ref>

Peachtree Industrial Boulevard was originally built in the 1960s. The portion of the road concurrent to SR 141 was upgraded to a [[Limited-access road|limited-access highway]] in the 1980s and 1990s.

In 2008, the section within the city limits of [[Chamblee, Georgia|Chamblee]] was renamed to Peachtree Boulevard, to reflect the changing nature of the city.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://atlanta.curbed.com/2015/1/30/9997144/peachtree-industrial-boulevard-and-the-new-chamblee|title=Peachtree Boulevard and the New Chamblee|date=January 30, 2015}}</ref> Prior to this change, the "industrial" name extended until Peachtree Road merges in near the city line with present-day [[Brookhaven, Georgia|Brookhaven]]. In November 2018, the [[Doraville, Georgia|Doraville]] City Council passed a resolution to authorize the city manager to rename Peachtree Industrial Boulevard within the city limits to Peachtree Boulevard, following the changes made by Chamblee.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.ajc.com/news/local/major-dekalb-road-could-see-name-change-the-future/t6SFStrC6mUbI7MJ8VpQFI/|title=Major DeKalb road could see name change in the future|last=Habersham|first=Raisa|date=November 8, 2018|website=The Atlanta Journal-Constitution|language=English|access-date=September 10, 2019}}</ref> This change was implemented in 2023.

In 2013, Gwinnett County decreased the speed limit the road to 45&nbsp;mph between SR 141 (Peachtree Parkway) and [[Georgia State Route 20|SR 20]] (Nelson Brogdon Boulevard) and 50&nbsp;mph between SR 20 and the [[Hall County, Georgia|Hall County]] line. The goal of the change was to reduce speeding and accidents.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.gwinnettcounty.com/web/gwinnett/Home/Stories/ViewStory?story=New%20speed%20limits%20along%20Peachtree%20Industrial%20Boulevard|title=New speed limits along Peachtree Industrial Boulevard|last=|first=|date=September 11, 2013|website=www.gwinnettcounty.com|access-date=September 10, 2019}}</ref>

== Orphaned segments ==
There are six road segments that previously carried State Route 141 or a derivative designation that no longer do.

#  What is now Georgia SR 371 once was SR 141 between Georgia SR 9 and SR 20. It was changed to its present number in 1971.  It was removed from the state highway system in 2020 when SR 141 was extended north along Bethelview Road, essentially replacing its original route with a new alignment.
#  The State Route 141 designation was previously used in DeKalb County between Tucker and US 78 in what is now Stone Mountain Park on what is now Hugh Howell Highway (SR 236) which was at the time named Rosser Road.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.dot.ga.gov/DriveSmart/MapsData/Documents/CountyMapsArchive/DeKalb_1900s.zip|title=Georgia DOT Map Archive, DeKalb County 1900s, 1948 Map|last=|first=|date=|website=|publisher=|access-date=June 22, 2016}}</ref>
# Prior to construction of Peachtree Parkway and the extension and re-routing of SR 141 to Buckhead, SR 141 followed what is present day Medlock Bridge Road from its current intersection with Peachtree Parkway, into downtown Norcross and became North Peachtree Road, crossed the railroad tracks at Park Street, and then traveled on South Peachtree until its terminus at Buford Highway (SR 13). When plans were drawn to re-route SR 141 to its present alignment, GDOT changed the designation of this roadway to SR 141 Connector.
