Weekend Lane Closures on I-85 in Gwinnett for Bridge Maintenance
METRO ATLANTA - Contractors for the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) will install weekend lane closures on Interstate 85 (I-85) northbound and southbound for a bridge maintenance project at four locations in Gwinnett County.

Weather and on-site conditions permitting, these are the closures scheduled between 9 p.m. on Friday, November 6 and 5 a.m. on Monday:

I-85 northbound between Steve Reynolds Boulevard (exit 103) and Pleasant Hill Road (exit 104)
  • One right lane closed on Saturday and Sunday, 7 a.m. until 11 p.m.
  • Three right lanes closed each weekend night, 9 p.m. until 7 a.m. the following mornings (until 5 a.m. on Monday)
I-85 southbound between Old Norcross Road and Pleasant Hill Road
  • One left lane closed each weekend night, 9 p.m. until 5 a.m. the following mornings
Onsite message boards and traffic control measures will alert drivers approaching these lane closures. Lane closures help ensure safety for workers and drivers through the project area. This $1.6 M project is scheduled for completion in spring 2027.

Message boards will give drivers advance notice of the lane closures; expect delays through the project area. Motorists are advised to exercise caution and reduce speed while traveling through work zones.
