Prepare for delays on I-85 this week in Franklin County.

Georgia Dept of Transportation crews are working nights this week in Northbound and Southbound left lanes between Exits 160 and 164.

The left lanes will be closed so crews can install a temporary barrier wall between the two exits.

The lane closures began last night and will run through Wednesday, March 29, beginning at 9 p.m. until 6 a.m. weather permitting.

Work will have an impact on both northbound and southbound traffic on I-85 for the four-mile stretch and motorists traveling on I-85 during those hours should expect delays and might want to consider alternate routes.

And as always, before heading out, you can get real-time information on work status and traffic conditions by calling 511, visiting 511ga.org, or downloading the Georgia 511 app.
