VALDOSTA, Ga. (WALB) — Georgia Power crews will begin closing lanes this week along North Saint Augustine Road in Valdosta.

Starting Thursday, July 16, drivers will see single-lane closures on State Route 133 from the Interstate 75 Exit 18 interchange to Norman Drive. The closures will move with crews as they install new power poles as part of a TIA roadway improvement project.

What drivers should expect

In the coming weeks, multiple lanes and the northbound Interstate 75 ramp to North Saint Augustine Road may close temporarily as needed. Drivers should expect delays near Valdosta Mall.

Signs and law enforcement will direct traffic in the area. Drivers are encouraged to consider using Baytree, Gornto, or Hickory roads as detours.

Major construction is expected to wrap up in January 2027.
