The Georgia Department of Transportation will close the left lane of southbound I-75 between exits 288 and 285 in Bartow County Thursday and Friday.

The closures, which will take place from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m., will allow crews to do maintenance work. These lane closures will occur between the Main Street Exit in Cartersville and Red Top Mountain Road just south of Cartersville.

Motorists are advised to reduce speeds as they travel through this work zone. Message signs, barrels and cones will be utilized to alert the public of these lane closures.
