Traffic Alert: Major Delays Ahead as I-285 I-20 Interchange Redesign Begins in Atlanta

Starting Monday, commuters traveling through the I-285 interchange at I-20 on metro Atlanta's west side should prepare for significant delays due to controlled blasting for a redesign project expected to last several months. Traffic disruptions will primarily occur between 10:30 a.m. and noon, Mondays through Thursdays, potentially adding up to 20 minutes to travel times. The project aims to alleviate congestion at one of the nation's most notorious bottlenecks, with officials advising the use of navigation apps for alternate routes and cautioning drivers to remain alert in work zones.
