The I-285 construction that was postponed last weekend has been rescheduled to begin Friday.
The Georgia Department of Transportation said there will be a full closure of all northbound and southbound lanes of I-285 between State Route 139/Martin Luther King Jr. Drive (exit 9) and Cascade Road (exit 7) in Fulton County.

The closure will remain in place until 5 a.m. Monday, weather and on-site conditions permitting.
No traffic will be permitted through this section of I-285 at any time during the closure.
The closure was set to begin at 7 p.m. last Friday, but GDOT said because of the predicted rain, the contractor could not guarantee that the work would be complete by 5 a.m. Monday.
The work is part of a project to rebuild a 17-mile stretch of I-285 on the west side, which includes an overhaul of the I-20 interchange.
