A crash has blocked two left lanes on Interstate 20 West near Chapel Hill Road, creating miles of Friday gridlock for Atlanta-area drivers. Georgia’s Department of Transportation estimates lanes won’t fully reopen until at least 5:15 p.m.

🚗💥 What’s Happening: The collision occurred at mile marker 35.6 – Crews are working to clear wreckage.

⏰ What’s Next: Drivers should immediately seek alternate routes. Those already stuck should expect stop-and-go conditions even after the crash is cleared.

❤️ Remember The Golden Rule: Let emergency vehicles pass by moving to the right lane. Check your following distance – rear-end crashes spike during heavy congestion.
