From staff reports

TIFTON — A Georgia Department of Transportation contractor plans to begin asphalt maintenance on Interstate 75 in Crisp and Turner counties Sept. 25, which will require lane closures.

Maintenance will occur primarily during daylight hours, though some lane closures will be at night. Work will be done on north and south lanes in various locations between mileposts/interchanges 84/State Route (SR) 159 and 99/SR 300.

DOT officials say the work may take up to 10 days to complete. The start date and expected completion may be affected by inclement weather. Motorists are asked to reduce speed as they approach a work zone and move over a lane, if possible.
