Sunday afternoon 4:30 when I drove from like the Blood Connection eastward on Woodruff Rd to Trader Joe's, the closer to TJ the more crowded the traffic got. Is this section always this busy? What other part of Woodruff Rd also has huge traffic? What other major road in GVL is also packed with vehicles?
Traffic barely moves.
This note is not meant to be a complaint, but rather I want to leverage it...
Traffic on Woodruff Rd especially in that area is due to the poor timings of the traffic lights. This light is green meanwhile the next one is red which creates a poor flow of traffic. Next up is the two way traffic instead of a one way right turn only traffic
Fairview Rd can get pretty bad too especially towards the Harrison Bridge intersection.
The section of Woodruff Road, from Roper Mtn Road up to the 385 onramps, is the worst, and should be avoided roughly from 10am-8pm every day. I can't think of any other area in the Upstate that is nearly as bad as that.
Woodruff Road from Interstate 385 to Highway 14 was bad 30 years ago. The redevelopment of Greenville Mall into Magnolia Park and the development of Greenridge has shifted the trouble area to Verdae Boulevard / Roper Mountain Road to Interstate 385.

If you are trying to cross that area or leaving one of the shopping areas along there, the red lights are excruciating long. So long in fact that it creates chaos in the Magnolia Park roads.

Yes. The Costco entrance has to be the worst. The first year it was open I had a membership and would fill up there all the time. No way would I do that now with the line to get out backing all the way up to the gas bay at times. That is the biggest mess around and I really don't get the appeal of shopping there.
Getting INTO Costco at a busy time is nowhere near as bad as trying to get OUT of it.
It's so bad they need 2 police cars directing traffic inside the Costco parking lot, for the entire Christmas shopping season. It might be just short of two months of the year they are stationed there.
