The Georgia Department of Transportation closed the Spout Springs Road bridge over Interstate 85 as of January 21, 2019, as part of their project to widen I-85 from two to three lanes in both directions from I-985 to SR 53. This project is to provide relief to motorists in this heavily congested area and requires additional work, including replacing three overpass bridges along I-85.
Georgia DOT construction partners expect the Spout Springs Road Bridge over I-85 to remain closed for approximately 180 days. Motorists traveling westbound on Spout Springs Road will be re-routed at Flowery Branch Road, except for thru traffic to Doc Hughes Road. Temporary traffic signals will be placed at the intersections of Spout Springs Road and Flowery Branch Road and SR 124 and Flowery Branch Road to assist the traffic flow. The closure is necessary to perform bridge demolition and replacement.

The project website provides detour routes and a number of ways to stay informed about the project.
