URGENT UPDATE: Atlanta drivers, prepare for significant road changes as the Atlanta Department of Transportation (ATLDOT) has announced a closure of Biltmore Place NW starting this week for essential resurfacing work. This closure impacts the stretch from West Peachtree Street NW to Spring Street NW, and commuters need to adjust their routes immediately.
For those traveling northbound on West Peachtree Street NW, you will now need to divert left onto 8th Street NE, followed by another left onto Spring Street NW. Westbound traffic on Biltmore Place NW will be rerouted right onto West Peachtree Street NW, taking another left on 8th Street NE and a final left onto Spring Street NW. If you are heading south on Spring Street NW, prepare to pivot left onto 5th Street NE and then left again onto West Peachtree Street NW to maintain your course.
Pedestrians can stay calm as sidewalks remain open for foot traffic during this construction period. The resurfacing is crucial for maintaining road safety and improving overall travel conditions on what is a busy commuter route in Atlanta.
ATLDOT encourages residents and drivers to reach out with any questions or concerns. You can contact them at [email protected] for more information or to share feedback about the situation.
This closure is part of ongoing efforts to improve Atlanta’s infrastructure, and while it may disrupt your routine, it’s a necessary step toward enhancing the safety and functionality of our roads. For further updates and detailed information, check the ATLDOT traffic advisory page published on October 30, 2023.
Stay tuned for more updates as this situation develops, and plan your routes accordingly to avoid delays.
