Insane. Fire under I-85 bridge in ATL. Interstate will be closed

This is insane. A section of I-85 heading out of Atlanta has collapsible due to a huge fire under the bridge. This section of interstate is one, if not the heaviest traveled section through Atlanta. All lanes north and south will be closed minimum for 30 days. This is going to screw things up big time here...
WOW

if your heading south for spring break go around Atlanta..... It's going to be a miserable commute tomorrow. I really hope a lot of people work from home tomorrow.

I'm just glad there were no injuries reported... roads can be rebuilt.

very true. The fire department pulled back before it collapsed. They even called in two large foam pumpers from Harstfield international Airport.
Large PVC pipes were stored under the overpass. That's what was on fire. They haven't stated what caused it to start.

best part is my wife lands at Harstfield in 15 minutes. Lucky she is not stuck as that is the way she would have taken home. It's still going to be a long drive home tonight.

Hope it's back open in time for Maggie Valley

you can get around it easy.... Take 285 east then back up.
