ATLANTA – To allow for an anticipated increase in Memorial Day weekend traffic congestion, the Georgia Department of Transportation announced the suspension of lane closures on Georgia interstates and state routes through 5 a.m. Tuesday. While construction-related lane closures will be suspended, the department reminded travelers to exercise caution as crews may still work near highways, and safety concerns may require some long-term lane closures to remain in place.
In addition, incident management or emergency, maintenance-related lane closures could become necessary at any time on any route.
