The first route we will explore is taking I-85 North, which is the most straightforward route. This route has a distance of 25 miles and takes about 30 minutes. If your car's gas mileage is around 25 miles per gallon, you will need one gallon to get to Lilburn. With the current gas prices at $2.76 per gallon, it will cost you around $2.76 in gas money. There are no tolls on this route, so you're good to go if you choose to take I-85 North.
Route 2: I-285 East
The second option is the longer route, taking I-285 East. This route is 29 miles long and will take you around 40 minutes. Despite being longer, this option may save you a few cents in gas money, because you'll need a little less than a gallon of gas (around 0.9 gallons). However, you will need to pay a toll of $2.50 to take the Atlanta Highway. Additionally, the Highway patrol may also be lurking in the area so be mindful of that.
