Holiday travel tips for Georgia drivers

Georgia roads are about to get packed, with a record 3.8 million residents hitting the highways for Christmas. If you’re planning to drive, expect the worst congestion on I-16 near Savannah and I-75 around Macon and Stockbridge. The smoothest rides are early in the morning—especially before 10 a.m.—while afternoons from 1 to 7 p.m. will be the most stressful. Christmas Eve and Day should be calmer, but brace for a traffic surge on December 26. The DOT is suspending most lane closures, but some construction zones will remain. How are you planning to beat the holiday rush this year? #Transportation #GeorgiaTraffic #HolidayTravel
