Georgia Department of Transportation issued the following announcement on March 24.
Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) will install overnight ramp closures on the exit and entrance ramps from I-285 to Camp Creek Pkwy this Saturday through next Tuesday in conjunction with the ongoing Diverging Diamond Interchange (DDI) project.
Weather permitting, these are the ramp closures scheduled on I-285 at Camp Creek Parkway each night from 9:00 pm until 5:00 am the following mornings:
Saturday, March 28 – I-285 northbound exit ramp to Camp Creek Parkway;
Sunday, March 29 – Camp Creek Parkway on-ramp to I-285 northbound;
Monday, March 30 – I-285 southbound exit ramp to Camp Creek Parkway; and
Tuesday, March 31 – Camp Creek Parkway on-ramp to I-285 southbound.
During these closures, traffic heading to Camp Creek Parkway and I-285 will be detoured around the closures via N. Commerce Road/Redwine Road/Desert Drive to connect back to Camp Creek Parkway. GDOT contractors will be applying asphalt to these ramps in proximity of the new Camp Creek DDI.
The I-285 at Camp Creek DDI will improve traffic flow and mobility in the area, reduce traffic accidents and provide a distinctive gateway for the area.
In the face of the current coronavirus pandemic, with all recommended precautions the work of the Georgia Department of Transportation continues. Our construction partners and project teams who oversee construction projects are following sanitary work practices as directed by local officials and as prescribed by health agencies to protect themselves and the public from the spread of coronavirus. This situation is rapidly evolving and GDOT will continue to respond as needed to protect the health and safety of our team members and the public.
As always, motorists traveling in the area are reminded to reduce their speeds in the work zone. Motorists are also encouraged to wear seatbelts, eliminate distractions behind the wheel, and plan their routes before getting on the road by calling 511 for real-time information on work status and traffic conditions.
