While necessary for timely completion of the ongoing construction required to rebuild this segment of I-285, this closure will have significant impacts on travel throughout the metro area.

Weather and on-site conditions permitting, the closure will begin at 7 p.m. Friday, June 5, and remain in place until 5 a.m. Monday, June 8.

🚧 No traffic will be permitted through this section of I-285 at any time during the closure.

Heavy congestion on I-20, I-75/I-85, and SR 166/Langford Parkway
Spillover traffic on local roads throughout southwest Atlanta and Fulton County
Anyone traveling anywhere in the metro Atlanta area this weekend should plan ahead.
Drivers are strongly advised to:

Allow substantial extra travel time
Consider alternate routes or adjust travel times
Check traffic conditions before leaving using the 511GA app or other navigation tools or wayfinding apps

DETOUR INFORMATION

🚨 SCAM ALERT – FRAUDULENT “VERIZON” TEXTS 🚨

The Chattahoochee Hills Police Department is warning residents about a scam text message currently circulating that appears to come from Verizon. The message claims there is a request to access your account and urges you to click a link to “confirm or deny” the request.

⚠️ DO NOT CLICK THE LINK ⚠️

Scammers often use fake websites and urgent language to trick people into providing passwords, account information, or payment details. In this example, the link provided is NOT an official Verizon website.

Here are a few red flags:
• Suspicious or unfamiliar web address
• Urgent language designed to create panic
• Requests to verify account information through a text link
• Messages claiming unauthorized account access

âś… If you receive a similar message:
• Do not click any links
• Do not provide personal information
• Delete the message
• Contact Verizon directly through their official app, website, or customer service number if you are concerned about your account

Please help protect friends and family—especially elderly relatives—from falling victim to these scams by sharing this post.

The Chattahoochee Hills Police Department extends our deepest condolences to the Fairburn Police Department, the family of Sergeant Mark Smith, and all those who had the privilege of serving alongside him.

Sergeant Smith dedicated his life to serving both his community and his country with honor, professionalism, and compassion. His impact on those around him will not be forgotten, and his loss is deeply felt throughout the law enforcement community.

We ask our residents and community partners to keep Sgt. Smith’s family, friends, and fellow officers in your thoughts and prayers during this incredibly difficult time.

From our department to yours, Fairburn PD — we stand with you. 💙🖤

Today, we would like to wish a very Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers in our community and beyond. Your strength, compassion, patience, and sacrifice do not go unnoticed. Mothers are often the quiet foundation of both families and communities, and we are grateful for everything you do each and every day.

We would also like to recognize our own Officer Dakota Hammock, the only mother currently serving within the Chattahoochee Hills Police Department. Officer Hammock balances the demanding responsibilities of law enforcement with the equally important role of being a mother — both of which require dedication, resilience, and heart. We are proud to have her serving our community.

From all of us at the Chattahoochee Hills Police Department, Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there. We hope your day is filled with love, appreciation, and time with those who matter most.
