I-75 Southbound Work to Cause Detours in East Cobb

Weather permitting, a night time detour will reroute Canton Road traffic accessing the entrance ramps to I-75 Southbound in order to set bridge beams, the Georgia Department of Transportation announced Monday.

Work is scheduled for Monday, October 19th, and again on Thursday, October 22nd between the off-peak hours of 9:00PM - 5:00AM.

The project will focus on the I-75 Southbound entrance ramp at Canton Road Connector—Canton Road Connector traffic traveling I-75 Southbound will be directed to take the I-75 Northbound ramp to travel northbound to Barrett Parkway (Exit 269). Traffic will then be directed to make a left on Barrett Parkway followed by another left to then enter I-75 Southbound via the ramp from Barrett Parkway.

Detours are likely to result in delays. Motorists are advised to exercise caution while driving in these areas. On-site message boards indicating dates, times and detour routes will be present in advance of these closures.

Please be advised that construction activities, including material deliveries, may result in traffic delays prior to the start of any lane closure.
