Atlanta Traffic

Visit WSB, Channel 2 and click on "Traffic" for the latest information in accidents and highway construction delays. Note that in August 2005 there is major weekend construction on I-285 (the perimeter expressway), and many lanes are closed at night and on weekends. On weekdays, rush hour begins on the major freeways at 3:00 p.m., so plan accordingly.
