WHAT: Weather permitting, Georgia Department of Transportation (Georgia DOT) contractors will implement multiple Interstate 85 lane closures beginning tonight through Sunday, Nov. 10 at State Route 42/North Druid Hills Road for bridge beam setting. This is part of bridge construction that will connect the future Displaced Left Turn for the westbound to southbound North Druid Hills Road movement to I-85.
Motorists can expect a continuous weekend closure of one, inside lane on I-85 northbound and southbound from Friday, Nov. 8, at 7 p.m. through Sunday, Nov. 10, at 1 p.m.
Friday and Saturday from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. multiple I-85 lanes will close diverting drivers onto the North Druid Hills Road interchange ramps to pass through the area. In case of inclement weather impacts or delays, a backup date is scheduled for Sunday, Nov. 10, from 11 p.m. to Monday, Nov. 11, at 5 a.m. Advanced warning signage and law enforcement will alert motorists to the on-site detour during the late night and early morning operations.
