Expect weekend traffic pacing in Gwinnett County

The Georgia Department of Transportation says that if the weather permits, contractors for Georgia Transmission Corporation will pull utility lines across all lanes on I-85 northbound and southbound between Jimmy Carter Boulevard and Indian Trail in Gwinnett County. They say the work is “part of a critical electric infrastructure upgrade” and will require traffic pacing on Saturday, Oct. 14 and Sunday, Oct. 15 from 7:30 a.m. to 11 a.m. Access ramps from these exits will be closed during the traffic pacing. Expect delays and find alternate routes if possible. For more information, call 511 or visit www.gatrans.com.
