If you’re traveling I-85 North near Commerce this morning, expect possible delays. The Georgia Department of Transportation on Tuesday closed a section of the interstate for emergency bridge construction.
The closed section is at milepost 144.5 on the northbound bridge over the North Oconee River.
GDOT says the closure was necessary to protect drivers. Those traveling should expect “heavy delays” at peak rush hour.
The road could remain closed into early Wednesday morning, transportation officials say.
