TDOT Pausing Construction Lane Closures for Fourth of July Weekend

  • Starting at midday on Thursday, July 3, the Georgia Department of Transportation will halt all construction-related lane closures on interstates and state routes across the state until 10 p.m. on Sunday, July 6.
  • GDOT initiated the suspension as a Fourth of July moratorium to reduce delays, ease congestion from holiday events, and enhance travel safety during increased weekend traffic.
  • Despite the pause, GDOT forecasts moderate to heavy congestion on several routes like I-16 near Savannah and I-475 near Macon, while light congestion is expected on I-85 near South Carolina.
  • Commissioner Solomon Caviness highlighted improvements including over 11 miles of downtown sidewalk upgrades and repair of more than 150 lights to enhance safety and vibrancy before work resumes Monday at 9 a.m.
  • This construction pause aims to improve holiday travel flow and safety, while planned projects, including 25 centerline miles of resurfacing, will continue after the moratorium ends Monday morning.
