News Labor Day DOT road work to be burden, living hell
Posted by Thomas Wheatley @thomaswheatley on Fri, Aug 29, 2008 at 5:13 PM
The Masters of Pavement will be resurfacing southbound lanes of I-75/85 this weekend -- one of the busiest holiday weekends of the year -- and we're doing our part to tell you to stay the hell away from the asphalt prison during the project. Don't go near it. If you're in Marietta and need to get down to Clayton County for some reason, take I-285.
Why? At 9 p.m. on Friday, the DOT will close all but two lanes on I-85 southbound near its merge with I-75. At that same merge, I-75 will be reduced to one lane. Few lanes for a lot of people. The road work will continue until Tuesday morning.
Avoid, avoid, avoid. Take public transit to the many planned festivities this weekend or I-285 if you do have to get behind the wheel.
