Overnight drivers will have as much of a headache with their commute as back-to-school drivers will.
Drivers can expect double right lane closures on I-75 southbound between Windy Ridge Parkway and Akers Mill Road from 10 p.m. Monday to 5 a.m. Tuesday.
The closures are part of the Northwest Corridor express lanes project bridge work.
In addition to the double right lane closures, the I-75 southbound ramp to the I-285 eastbound ramp, or exit No. 259A will also be closed.
But not to worry. There will be a detour in place for those exiting at 259A.
Drivers travelling I-285 eastbound from I-75 southbound will redirect to take the I-75 southbound ramp, or exit No. 258, to Cumberland Boulevard.
Drivers will then turn left on Cumberland Boulevard and then make another left to the I-75 northbound ramp to access road I-285 eastbound.
If it rains, the closures will take place from 10 p.m. Tuesday to 5 a.m. Wednesday.
