The Gist: I-75 in Henry County will be re-painted starting at 9 p.m. tonight. The project to re-paint lanes on Interstate 75 in northern Henry County was originally scheduled to start in early December, but was delayed due to weather difficulties throughout the month.

Where: The area on I-75 to be re-striped extends from the Clayton County Line — near the Georgia 138 interchange at exit 228 — to just south of the Walt Stephens overpass and includes the I-675 interchange.

The crews’ shifts will run every evening starting at 9:00 p.m. and at 5 a.m. on weekdays. On Saturdays the shifts will end at 10 a.m. and on Sundays at noon.

Impact on traffic: Either one or two lanes will be closed around the work zone, and the closure will travel as the crews’ vehicles move up and down the interstate. Drivers should be aware that lane closures could be in either the southbound or northbound lanes, and they should moderate their speeds in the area and watch for signage alerting them to the possibility of the crew working ahead of them.
