Planning on driving I-75 this weekend? Be prepared for delays, the Georgia Department of Transportation says.

“Construction on the I-75 Express Lanes projects and sign structure work will require lane closures, which, in turn, are likely to result in delays,” the weekend advisory from GDOT says. “Motorists are advised to exercise caution by reducing speed while driving through work zones.”

Here is the full list of projects, provided by GDOT:
