Weather permitting, Georgia Department of Transportation contractors will open a new Abernathy Road Diverging Diamond Interchange (DDI) traffic pattern underneath State Route (SR) 400 between the northbound and southbound ramps requiring consecutive day traffic impacts. This DDI moves motorists to the opposite side of the road to easily access SR 400 ramps or to continue along Abernathy Road.

Beginning Thursday, April 13, through Monday, April 17, while the DDI is being implemented, motorists will have continuous access from Abernathy Road eastbound to SR 400 southbound, SR 400 northbound to Abernathy Road eastbound, Abernathy Road westbound to SR 400 northbound, and SR 400 southbound to Abernathy Road westbound. There will be no left turns or through traffic allowed. Advanced signage will help drivers navigate the DDI roadway and ramp configurations. Traffic pacing at the SR 400 ramps is needed during the multiday implementation plan for nighttime and weekend work, allowing for striping and other construction activities.

Motorists should pay close attention to the new roadway configuration. Click here to view how the new Abernathy DDI will flow.

WHEN: Starting Thursday, April 13, 9 p.m. to Monday, April 17, at 5 a.m.

WHERE: Abernathy Road DDI

I-285 Bridge Reconstruction Advances to Phase 2

The Transform 285/400 project team has made major progress in the last few months. One of the most prominent milestones, I-285 bridge reconstruction and associated lane closures, has officially advanced into Phase 2. Phase 2, the final phase of bridge reconstruction, will include demolition and reconstruction of the exterior portions of three critical mainline bridges on I-285 over Glenridge Drive, SR 400, and Peachtree Dunwoody Road. Phase 1 began in October of 2022 and was completed within 5 months. Phase 2 is expected to take 4-5 months to complete.

Three lanes in each direction remain open during the daytime hours with additional closures in the nighttime hours and on weekends. I-285 traffic is moving through the work zone without major disruptions. Georgia DOT encourages motorists to use extreme caution in this area. Motorists should leave earlier, utilize navigation apps to select alternate routes, and consider alternative commute options through Georgia Commute Options.

This important work is some of the final steps leading to substantial completion of the Transform 285/400 project and bringing us closer to long-term improvements and enhancements to the region.

What’s New?

I-285 Bridge over Lake Forrest Drive:

Crews recently began the deck replacement of the current bridge on I-285 over Lake Forrest Drive. Closures of Lake Forrest Drive underneath I-285 will take place during nights and weekends. This deck replacement is anticipated to take around 3-4 months to complete.

Peachtree Dunwoody Road Reconstruction Work Has Begun:

Reconstruction work on Peachtree Dunwoody Road is in progress. Once construction is complete there will be 6 lanes total between Lake Hearn and north of the freeway. A new multiuse path will be constructed along the west side and new sidewalks along the east side.

Beginning April 1 (weather dependent), there will be a new exit point for drivers on I-285 eastbound heading to SR 400 northbound and southbound, Roswell Road, and Glenridge Drive. This exit point will be approximately 1 mile sooner than the current exits.

Abernathy Road Diverging Diamond Interchange

The Abernathy Road Diverging Diamond Interchange (DDI) is anticipated to open by the end of April.
GDOT’s DDI How-To Guide:

•DDIs help move traffic more efficiently through heavily traveled areas.
•A DDI crosses traffic to the opposite side of the road across the ramp intersections allowing vehicles to have unimpeded movement onto the freeway ramps.
•This innovative design reduces potential points of intersection traffic conflicts, improves traffic flow, and enhances safety.

To further advance I-285 bridge reconstruction as part of the Transform 285/400 project, the contractor for the Georgia Department of Transportation (Georgia DOT) will implement the second step of Phase 2 traffic pattern changes along I-285 westbound over Glenridge Drive and State Route (SR) 400. This will mirror what occurred eastbound Sunday, February 26 over newly built bridge sections on I-285.

Beginning this weekend, I-285 westbound traffic will shift to the inside lanes on the new bridges over Glenridge Drive and SR 400. While crews are implementing this second step of Phase 2, a continuous weekend lane closure will be in effect from Friday, March 3, to Sunday, March 5, westbound between Peachtree Dunwoody Road and Glenridge Drive.

This second step of Phase 2 allows crews to demolish and reconstruct the exterior portions of the I-285 bridges over Glenridge Drive and SR 400 in the westbound direction. The same shift will follow in the next few weeks on the I-285 bridge over Peachtree Dunwoody Road. This step-by-step approach will allow construction crews to progress the work on all three I-285 bridges.

During these lane shifts, two lanes in each direction will remain open during the daytime hours, with the potential for additional overnight lane closures, which would further reduce available travel lanes.

WHEN/WHERE:

Friday, March 3 at 11 p.m. to Saturday, March 4 at 11 p.m. – One left lane on I-285 westbound from Peachtree Dunwoody Road to Glenridge Drive

Motorists traveling on I-285 westbound will be reduced to two lanes starting at Peachtree Dunwoody Road to Glenridge Drive.

Saturday, March 4 at 11 p.m. to Sunday, March 5 at 5 a.m. – Three lane closure on I-285 westbound from Peachtree Dunwoody Road to Glenridge Drive

Motorists traveling on I-285 westbound will be reduced to one lane starting at Peachtree Dunwoody Road to Roswell Road.

To further advance I-285 bridge reconstruction as part of the Transform 285/400 project, the contractor for the Georgia Department of Transportation (Georgia DOT) will implement the initial stage of Phase 2 traffic pattern changes along I-285 eastbound over Glenridge Drive and State Route (SR) 400. During Phase 1 of bridge reconstruction, contractors closed lanes on I-285 eastbound and westbound so that they could begin bridge demolition and reconstruction of the interior portions of the bridges over Glenridge Drive, SR 400, and Peachtree Dunwoody Road.

Beginning this weekend, I-285 eastbound traffic will shift to the inside lanes on the new bridges over Glenridge Drive and SR 400. While crews are implementing this initial step of Phase 2, a continuous weekend lane closure will be in effect from Friday, February 24, to Sunday, February 26 on I-285 eastbound between Glenridge Drive and Peachtree Dunwoody Road.

This initial step of Phase 2 will allow crews to demolish and reconstruct the exterior portions of the I-285 bridges over Glenridge Drive and SR 400 in the eastbound direction. The same approach will follow on I-285 westbound within two weeks.

The final step in Phase 2 bridge reconstruction will shift traffic to the inside lanes on the new structure over Peachtree Dunwoody Road in the next few weeks, to allow the demolition and reconstruction of the exterior portion of that bridge. This step-by-step approach will allow construction crews to progress the work on all three I-285 bridges.

During these lane shifts, three lanes in each direction will remain open during the daytime hours, with the potential for additional overnight lane closures, which would further reduce available travel lanes.

WHEN: Starting Friday, Feb. 24 at 11 p.m. to Sunday, Feb. 26 at 9 a.m.

WHERE: Continuous Weekend Lane Closure – One right lane on I-285 eastbound from Glenridge Drive to Peachtree Dunwoody Road

Motorists traveling on I-285 eastbound will be reduced to two lanes starting at Glenridge Drive to Peachtree Dunwoody Road.
