• Share on:

Metro Atlanta is gearing up for a busy Labor Day weekend with events like Dragon Con and the NCAA Aflac Kickoff Games. Dragon Con, running from Thursday to Monday, is expected to draw large crowds to downtown Atlanta, with a parade on Saturday morning that may be affected by increasing rain chances throughout the weekend. Motorists should anticipate heavy traffic on interstates, especially on Friday and Saturday, and the Georgia Department of Transportation will suspend lane closures to ease congestion, while MARTA will implement crowd management at high-traffic stations.
