Extreme delays on I-85 after crash

If I-85 northbound is part of your morning commute, avoid it.

More than two hours after a rollover crash north of Flat Shoals Road in south Fulton County, the WSB 24-hour Traffic Center reported extreme delays.

The trip time out of Fairburn is more than an hour, according to the Traffic Center, which first reported the crash at 5:25 a.m. Friday.

Drivers were urged to take Old National Highway to I-285 as an alternate route. The Traffic Center suggested drivers take Highway 29 from Fairburn to the Perimeter as well.
