FULTON COUNTY, Ga. - Drivers trying to access Ga. Highway 400 north and south from Interstate 285 west will have to make a detour until Monday morning.
The good news for drivers is that the closure is in preparation for what the Georgia Department of Transportation calls a "new exiting pattern" from I-285 westbound to Ga. 400 in both directions. If everything is on-schedule, it will be opening Monday.
Construction crews closed I-285 westbound ramp to Ga. Highway 400 northbound and southbound at 9 p.m. Friday. Weather permitting, it will reopen at 5 a.m. Monday.
