Georgia Department of Transportation projects to improve highway infrastructure throughout metro Atlanta continue this weekend, weather permitting. Motorists should expect significant delays at the I-285 and I-75 interchange. Multiple lanes will close during the day and overnight. The closures will require a detour. Work on I-20 will also require continuous lane closures.
