Found a real shortcut for dodging traffic on 285 during that 5pm mess

I was stuck on 285 near the perimeter for like 45 minutes last Tuesday, crawling along. Out of frustration I hopped off at Ashford Dunwoody and took a random left through that office park behind the mall. Turns out there's a back road that cuts all the way over to Peachtree Industrial and I saved 20 minutes easy. Anyone else got a hidden route they swear by for skipping the worst of that bottleneck?

Took Johnson Ferry through that neighborhood behind the QT once and shaved off a good 15 minutes.

@Sarahhart yeah I cut through that way on a Sunday last month. Worked like a charm, no traffic at all.
