Lane closures in Midtown Atlanta could cause mess between Piedmont Avenue and 10th Street

ATLANTA — Traffic could be a mess in Midtown Atlanta for the rest of this week as emergency sewer repairs continue.

The city’s watershed management department says full lanes closures start Wednesday at the intersection of 10th street and Piedmont Avenue and will remain closed until work is completed, hopefully by Saturday.

However, the timeline all depends on factors like weather.

The sewer issues were discovered while crews worked on other upgrades.
