ATLANTA (AP) - A major thoroughfare through the heart of Atlanta is scheduled to close for 24 hours as part of a massive project to rebuild a nearby Interstate 85 overpass.
The section of I-85 collapsed March 30 during an intense blaze beneath the structure.
The Georgia Department of Transportation says busy Piedmont Road will close from 9 a.m. Tuesday to 9 a.m. Wednesday so that beams for a new roadway can be put in place at the I-85 collapse site.
Reconstruction of the I-85 bridge is expected to take until at least mid-June.
