>>There was one about a year or two ago in the Atlanta area that torched an overpass and closed down both that section of the loop road around Atlanta and the interstate it went over.


Yep, that was at the bridge where I-285 goes over GA400. GA400 is a limited-access highway, too. Long time lane closures during the repairs, one lane each way. I live about 5-6 miles from there.

That's the one. I was on a biz trip and my plane got in late, around 10:30 PM. I was in a rental car trying to get to northern Alpharetta. I don't know where I went that night (had no maps (DOH!) and after being forced to get off the hightway got lost someplace called Roswell?) but I didn't pull into the hotel until about 1 AM.

I'm sorry you had to suffer the traffic caused by that accident, living there. It was a mess on my way back to the airport 3 days later, too.
