Lanes on I-75 south reopened after crash near Canton Road in Cobb County

ATLANTA — Drivers were warned to seek alternate routes after a serious accident left traffic snarled in Cobb County during the late hours of March 15th.

According to the Georgia Department of Transportation, there was a major accident with injuries in the southbound lanes of Interstate 75, past Canton Road, exit 267.
