Report

Labor Day 2026 in Georgia

What the 511GA feed carried over the holiday weekend.

Driving across Georgia

I-75 runs the length of the state, Florida line to Tennessee line, straight through Macon and Atlanta. I-85 comes up from Alabama through Atlanta toward South Carolina. I-20 crosses east to west through Atlanta between Alabama and Augusta. I-16 drops southeast from Macon to Savannah, the coastal evacuation route, and I-95 hugs the coast past Savannah and Brunswick.

What the season does to Georgia's highways

When a major hurricane threatens Savannah, I-16 becomes the escape route, and in a full evacuation the state can reverse the eastbound lanes so all traffic flows inland toward Macon. Contraflow start points, crossovers and closures are announced by mile marker. Around Atlanta, where I-75, I-85 and I-20 all cross, incident reports come fast, and a winter ice event there can stop the whole metro.

Before a Georgia road trip

  1. Check the map above for anything red on your route, then open 511GA for the DOT's own detour and restriction text.
  2. Look at the road. The Georgia cameras show the pavement itself, and most carry the mile marker.
  3. For the long haul, the I-95, I-75 and I-20 corridor pages carry alerts for every state the route crosses, not only Georgia.
  4. Know how to say where you are. Dispatch, 911 and tow companies ask for the route, the direction and the mile marker. How to report your location on the highway.
  5. Carry the app. The mile marker works offline in all 50 states, and the same 511GA alerts show on your route as you drive.

What September looked like

Over 25 daily snapshots from September 1 to 25, 2026, MileCheck's archive of the 511GA feed held 483 unique reports, including 104 closure reports, 99 crash reports and 235 work-zone reports. The routes with the most reports were I-285, I-20 and I-75. Counts reflect what the feed publishes, so a state whose DOT posts only closures shows only closures. Read the September Highway Report.

Questions, answered

Is the highway closed in Georgia right now?

The map above shows every full closure 511GA is publishing as a red marker, crashes in orange, and weather and hazard alerts in blue and purple. Closures the DOT has posted for a future date are listed as scheduled, and ramp and lane closures sit under the toggle so the list stays readable. It reloads every five minutes. If the feed cannot be reached the page says so instead of showing an empty map. For the official list, open 511GA.

Where do I check Georgia road conditions?

511GA is the official source, and dialing 511 in most states reaches the same information by phone. This page reads the same 511GA feed and adds the Georgia cameras, the corridor and pass pages, and your own mile marker if you carry the app.

How often does this page update?

Every five minutes. MileCheck's server fetches the 511GA feed, converts it to one format shared by all 50 states, and caches it for five minutes. Each alert also carries the time the DOT last updated it, shown in the list.

Does the MileCheck app show these alerts?

Yes. The app shows the same 511GA alerts on your route, ahead of your position, with the mile marker you are passing. The mile marker works offline in all 50 states. Live alerts are part of MileCheck Premium, $49.99 a year or $9.99 a month after a 7-day free trial.

Know exactly where you are — live

Your mile marker shows even offline. 511GA alerts on your route and the nearest camera are part of MileCheck Premium and need a connection to update. Runs on CarPlay and Android Auto.
