The Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) has announced that one right southbound lane of I-75 will be closed on Thursday, September 11, between mileposts 314 and 316. The closure is scheduled from 8:30 a.m. until 4 p.m., weather permitting, and motorists should anticipate significant delays in the area.

GDOT crews will be working in the affected roadway section. This update clarifies earlier information regarding planned work in the vicinity. Previously, GDOT had indicated that work would be performed on the exit ramp at milepost 315 on Thursday. The new announcement specifies that the main southbound right lane of I-75 itself will be closed.

Motorists traveling through the area during these hours are strongly advised to exercise caution, reduce speed, and pay close attention to construction signage and flaggers. Given the potential for heavy congestion, commuters may wish to consider alternative routes or adjust their travel times if possible.

GDOT asks for the public’s patience and cooperation as they conduct necessary maintenance and improvements to the interstate. All work is weather permitting and subject to change.
