Interstate Closures
Contractor work crews on behalf of the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) will implement a full closure of all northbound and southbound lanes of Interstate 285 (I-285) between State Route (SR) 139/Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive (exit 9) and Cascade Road (exit 7) in Fulton County. While necessary for timely completion of the ongoing construction required to rebuild this segment of I-285, this closure will have significant impacts on travel throughout the metro area.
The closure will begin 7 p.m. on Friday, May 8, and remain in place until 5 a.m. Monday, May 11, weather and on-site conditions permitting.
No traffic will be permitted through this section of I-285 at any time during the closure.
