This weekend, contractors for the Georgia Department of Transportation will install lane closures on I-75 in Marietta. These closures are related to a bridge preservation project on I-75 at three locations in Cobb and one location in Fulton County.

Weather and on-site conditions permitting, three right lanes will be closed on I-75 southbound from the I-75/I-575 interchange to Canton Road, and one left lane will be closed on Northside Parkway northbound and southbound under the I-75 overpass beginning 10 p.m. on Friday, until 5 a.m. on Monday.

This project will replace or repair the bridgesโ€™ concrete overlay, substructures and superstructures, and bridge joints. This $10.7 million project is scheduled for completion in fall 2023.

Message boards will give drivers advance notice of the upcoming traffic pacing and lane closures. Motorists are advised to expect delays and use signed detours, exercise caution, and reduce their speed while traveling through work zones.

Before heading out, get real-time information on work status and traffic conditions. Call 511, visit 511ga.org, or download the Georgia 511 app.
