The Transform 285/400 improvement project is designed to help reduce traffic congestion and enhance safety in the area near the I-285/SR 400 interchange in metro Atlanta. This priority project adds new flyover ramps, new collector-distributor lanes and other facilities to aid east-west travel along I-285 and north-south travel along SR 400.

The project will improve 4.3 miles of I-285 from west of Roswell Road to east of Ashford Dunwoody Road and 6.2 miles along SR 400 from the Glenridge Connector to Spalding Drive.

Weather permitting; Georgia Department of Transportation continues to improve highway infrastructure throughout metropolitan Atlanta and statewide. As a result, work on construction and maintenance projects will continue this weekend.

In addition, with the convergence events happening in the downtown and midtown area beginning Friday and continuing throughout the weekend; motorists are advised to plan ahead, expect heavy delays and seek alternate routes.

Major projects of interest that will likely impact traffic includes the I-75 resurfacing project and Transform 285/400 project in Cobb and Fulton counties.
