Weekend Traffic Outlook: Lots of roadwork planned along GA-400 & I-285

There is lots of roadwork planned this weekend along GA-400 & I-285 for the Transform I-285/GA-400 project, as well as on GA-400 inside I-285 for paving.

Expect multiple lane closures throughout the weekend. Construction will also be active on I-285 both ways on the west side of town between I-75 and I-85 in Cobb and Fulton Counties.

Plus, lane restrictions are planned all weekend on I-85/southbound past GA-400 in Northeast Atlanta. WSB will have live traffic updates all weekend to guide you around the delays. As always, please drive safely and remember to use caution in these work zones to keep workers safe.

**All construction is as GDOT reports it and is weather-permitting. All times, lanes blocked, and locations could change.

>>Listen to 95.5 WSB for live traffic updates all weekend and download the TRIPLE TEAM TRAFFIC ALERTS Mobile App for automated audio alerts.
