Check out Georgia DOT's Weekend Report
METRO ATLANTA -- The Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) continues to improve highway infrastructure throughout the metropolitan Atlanta area. As a result, work on construction and maintenance projects will continue this weekend.
To assist in avoiding major delays in your travels, GDOT created a webpage dedicated to weekend lane closures throughout Metro Atlanta.
The public can now view all scheduled weekend lane closures at http://www.dot.ga.gov/ds/metrolaneclosures. Lane closure information can be accessed by selecting the desired option within the search filter and clicking the submit button. The search filter will sort information by traffic impact level, county, interstate or state route.
The weekend lane closure schedule will be posted on a weekly basis and will be accessible from 4:00 p.m., Thursday until 10 a.m., Monday.
As always, for information about travel conditions on Georgia's interstates and state routes, call 511 before getting on the road. Georgia 511 is a free phone service that provides real-time traffic and travel information statewide, including traffic conditions, incidents, lane closures, and delays. Callers can transfer to operators to request assistance or report incidents 24 hours a day, seven days a week. In metro Atlanta, you can also request HERO roadside assistance by calling 511. More information is available at www.511ga.org.
Georgia Department of Transportation plans, constructs and maintains Georgia's state and federal highways. We're involved in bridge, waterway, public transit, rail, general aviation, bike and pedestrian programs. And we help local governments maintain their roads. Georgia DOT and its nearly 4,000 employees are committed to delivering a transportation system focused on innovation, safety, sustainability and mobility.
