The Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) repaving project on I-75/I-85 will continue through this weekend. The following routes are recommended for Falcons’ fans attending the first preseason home game of the year as the Falcons take on the Colts.

  • Fans traveling to the Georgia Dome via I-75/I-85 North or South should use Exit 246 – Central Avenue. Inbound routes from other interstates will not be affected.
  • Fans leaving the Georgia Dome wishing to access I-75 North or South will go to Northside Drive and continue northbound to the I-75 on ramps. Ivan Allen Boulevard and North Avenue will not be accessible routes for this game. Routes on I-20 East and West will not be affected.

Please note the following northbound (NB) ramp closures provided by the GDOT:

According to GDOT officials, this is the final week for the I-75/I-85 repaving project. The staff at the Georgia Dome and Atlanta Falcons encourage every fan to consider your transportation route and options when traveling to the Dome. Remember that choosing MARTA and carpooling are excellent options and arriving early is the best way to ensure that you don’t miss any of the action. Falcons’ Landing – an interactive fan experience with games, prizes, live music, concessions, special guest appearances and live broadcasts – opens three hours prior to every Falcons’ home game. Entertainment and warm-ups begin inside the Dome at 5:30 p.m. Falcons and Colts kickoff at 7:30 p.m.

The following resources are available to help you plan ahead as you make your way downtown. These provide the most up-to-date information available:
