Weather permitting, road work could create delays for commuters in Sandy Springs along I-285 by Georgia/400, and on Georgia/400 between Hammond Drive (Exit 4C) and Holcomb Bridge Road (Exit 7).
More work on the west side of the I-285 Perimeter may block lanes by Camp Creek Pkwy (Exit 2) and near Hollowell Pkwy. (Exit 12). Paving projects in Atlanta for Piedmont Road by Habersham and Roswell Roads, as well as in Kennesaw along much of Barrett Parkway east of Cobb Parkway (Hwy. 41) may also create nighttime delays, if not postponed by projected rain showers all weekend.
Downtown Atlanta traffic flow will be heavy by State Farm Arena, with singer Marc Anthony in concert Friday night, and the home opener for the NBA’s Atlanta Hawks Saturday.
Add the “Strides Against Breast Cancer” 5K” by Georgia World Congress Center side streets Saturday to the Atlanta Falcons’ NFL battle the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday at Mercedes-Benz for Sunday, and you may experience packed streets through the weekend!
*All construction is as GDOT reports it and is weather-permitting. All times, lanes blocked, and locations could change and additional projects could occur.
