The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Peachtree Road Race is back on Tuesday and that means there will be several road closures throughout Buckhead and midtown.
Atlanta Police Deputy Chief Timothy Peek says to ease traffic flow, avoid driving yourself to the race if possible.
“If you can take MARTA, certainly do so. There are a number of places where you can get off and access where you need to go.”
Race director Rich Kenah says race attendance has rebounded after a pandemic slump.
