Traffic Alert | Police activity, tractor trailer wreck on I-285 causing major delays

Two problems are causing headaches for commuters on I-285.

ATLANTA — Two major incidents Wednesday were causing headaches for commuters on the eastside perimeter.

A police investigation on Interstate 285 southbound near Northlake Parkway lasted for several hours, but has since been cleared as of around 6:45 a.m.

Not far from that is an overturned tractor trailer on I-285 southbound before Memorial Drive. Only the left lane appears to be open.

The inside perimeter is jam packed. If you need to get around the eastside perimeter, use I-85 south through downtown and then come back toward I-20.

Delays are already stretching back toward spaghetti junction.
