If you’re looking to avoid traffic congestion or experience trouble while traveling Georgia’s roads this holiday season the Georgia Department of Transportation reminds you that help is just a phone call away.
Motorists can access real-time, statewide, route-specific information on accidents, road work, traffic and weather conditions through its free phone service, Georgia 511.
By dialing 511, callers also can transfer to operators 24 hours a day to report incidents or request assistance.
The system can be used to access transit providers, major airports, rideshare organizations, tourism information and 511 systems in surrounding states. Additionally, 511 is available online.
