The I-85 South interchange is a gateway to one of the largest southeastern logistics corridors, and SR 74 is a significant commuting corridor for Fayette County. Currently, freight and commuter traffic is slowed down considerably when merging onto I-85 from the South Fulton CID area.

The problem: traffic delays when entering I-85
The solution: a new, smoother interchange
The South Fulton CID designed a new partial cloverleaf interchange to help traffic get onto the interstate more efficiently. The planned 0.4 miles of improvements will also include new or wider ramps, wider bridges over I-85, and new traffic signals. See the project plan below for greater detail.
What the CID is doing now
The CID’s project plan was approved and construction began in March 2025. The interchange will remain open to traffic throughout construction. Traffic changes will be posted on the GDOT project website. For more project updates, follow our LinkedIn page.
CID AT WORK
