Because of an anticipated increase in holiday traffic, the Georgia Department of Transportation will suspended construction-related lane closures on interstates and state routes starting November 24 at 5 am until November 28 at 10 pm. According to a release, similar restrictions will be in place for Christmas and New Year’s. Motorists are reminded to exercise caution as crews may still work near highways, and safety concerns could require some long-term lane closures to remain in place. Also, incident or emergency maintenance lane closures could take place at any time on any route.

Because of that, the Georgia Department of Transportation will suspend construction related lane closures on interstates and major state routes from noon on May 28 through June 1 at 5 am. A release reminds motorists that crews could still be working nearby.
