“Numerous streets are going to be impacted throughout downtown, including Northside Drive, Piedmont, MLK Jr. Drive, and all near the Downtown Connector. So plan ahead,” Shields said.
If you are going to the event, you may need ways around it.
“Use MARTA. That’s going to be your best way to avoid any delays and trying to get to and from, to avoid the street closures that’s going to last throughout the weekend,” Shields said.
Shields said people are encouraged to also use ride-sharing services if they plan to race.
