Attention Atlanta commuters: Traffic flow on Marietta Street NW changed as of last night. According to an announcement from the Atlanta Department of Transportation (ATLDOT), a portion of Marietta Street NW, between North Avenue NW and Peachtree Street NW, will have a nightly lane closure from 8:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. due to utility adjustments. The change began last night and will remain in effect until the work is complete. While drivers may experience some delays during overnight hours, traffic will still be able to pass through as all lanes will shift to maintain vehicle access.

The lane closure is specifically designed to accommodate adjustments to the city's utility infrastructure. In the meantime, the sidewalks will remain open, ensuring pedestrian access is maintained. Traffic officers and flaggers are going to be on hand to help direct cars and assist with traffic control. For those looking for further information, inquiries can be directed to [email protected], as mentioned in an advisory from the department.

Regular commuters on this stretch of Marietta Street NW should adjust their travel plans during the overnight hours to avoid potential delays.
