Atlanta Metro residents...

It's Atlanta, it is always miserable to travel through whether by car or plane.

Yeah...a few yrs ago i was on mini school bus transporting deaf kids from the NC school f/t deaf to the GA school...and we hit ATL metro at 5 pm on a Fri..there were baseball games..concerts and some other stuff happening ..along with regular rush hour commuters...and all those connector roads were jammed like a parking lot...even the on and off ramps were solidly crammed with traffic..This area is very unfriendly for motorcyclists...traffic there is worse than NJ/NYC corridor...in fact ATL metro rivals LA

Thanks guys...I'm timing it so that I will pass through ATL metro around 10pm...as long as traffic is free flowing then we're good...barring unforseen events ofc...

Friday night traffic won't begin to subside before 1830. Don't plan to get into the metro area before then. Traffic will still be heavy until late.

I am driving through the Atlanta metro area on Fri evening...i need a general idea when the rush hour congestion will have abated...by 8pm or later? My route through town will start with I-20 to I285 to I 85 south. It will take roughly 8 hours from raleigh area...so i need to time it so that i miss all the congestion...but am concerned about arrival at my destination before 10pm in Peachtree City...any insights and advice is greatly appreciated...
