Interstate Lane Closure Advisory for the I-285/I-20 West Interchange Project
|
|
WHAT: Weather permitting, the Georgia Department of Transportation (Georgia DOT) contractors will temporarily close interstate lanes for the I-285/I-20 West Interchange project. This project will reconstruct and widen several interstate system-to-system ramps at the I-285/I-20 West Interchange and add a combination of collector-distributor lanes or connecting lanes, and auxiliary lanes along I-20 west and I-285 north of the interchange.
Note: Detour information is shown in red text. The following detours will be scheduled so they will not conflict with one another. Closures and detours will be coordinated to confirm proper maintenance of traffic. No more than one ramp in the I-285/I-20 West Interchange will be closed at a time.
