Atlanta, GA (November 27, 2024) – At approximately 6:04 AM EST on November 26, 2024, emergency responders were called to a two-vehicle collision at the intersection of I-20 E and I-285 S in Atlanta. The crash involved injuries, and both police and firefighters quickly arrived on the scene. Initial reports indicated that the collision was blocking three right lanes, causing significant traffic delays in the area.

By 6:36 AM, the Georgia Department of Transportation issued an update stating that all lanes on the eastbound side had reopened. However, earlier lane closures had caused traffic congestion as crews worked to clear the scene and tend to the injured.

The full details of the crash, including the extent of the injuries sustained by the involved individuals, have not yet been confirmed. Emergency responders worked quickly to provide medical care and transport the injured individuals to nearby hospitals. No additional details on the cause of the accident or the identities of those involved have been released as of this time.

Authorities continue to investigate the cause of the crash, and drivers are advised to remain cautious in the area, particularly during peak travel hours. While the lanes have now reopened, residual delays are expected as the cleanup continues.

We send our thoughts and best wishes to those affected by this incident, and we encourage drivers to exercise extra caution on the road.

Vehicle Collisions in Atlanta

The I-20 and I-285 intersection is one of Atlanta’s busiest, serving as a major hub for both local and regional traffic.
