The Georgia Department of Transportation (Georgia DOT) has announced a temporary traffic shift for the US 280 Widening Project, contingent on weather conditions. The shift will occur at the US 280/State Route (SR) 30 and I-16 westbound roundabout. During this period, flagging and pacing will be necessary, with officers present to assist. Once the traffic shift is complete, vehicles will move in a single-lane configuration on the outside of the roundabout to allow contractors to work inside.
This project is part of broader improvements that include roadway widening, new roundabouts, a frontage road along I-16, and a new interchange location on I-16. These enhancements aim to improve access to new developments in Bryan County.
The scheduled nighttime closures are set from Friday, June 20, through Saturday, June 21, between 7 p.m. and 6 a.m., affecting US 280/SR 30 at the I-16 westbound roundabout.
Motorists should anticipate delays and are advised to exercise caution and reduce speed when traveling through these work zones. For real-time updates on work status and traffic conditions, drivers can call 511 or visit 511ga.org. Further details about the project can be found online.
