Holiday weekend travel is always tough due to congestion, but construction shouldn't be a problem Memorial Day weekend.
The Georgia Department of Transportation is suspending construction-related lane closures from 5 a.m. Friday until 10 p.m. Monday.
Lanes will be closed for accidents and emergencies, when necessary.
