To ease World Series traffic congestion around Truist Park and Cobb County, Georgia Department of Transportation (Georgia DOT) is restricting construction-related lane closures during Braves home games until after 3:00 a.m. going away from the stadium and until after 12:00 a.m. going toward the stadium for the interstate routes listed below:

• I-285 from US78/SR8 Donald Lee Hollowell Pkwy to SR 400

“As people visit our great state and Truist Park for the 2021 World Series, we anticipate heavy traffic,” said Georgia DOT State Construction Engineer John D. Hancock, P.E. “For easier and safer travel we are limiting construction and associated lane closures.” 

World Series home games are currently planned for Friday, October 29, Saturday, October 30 and Sunday, October 31.
