Atlanta tracker · Counting since August 30, 2026
Atlanta Tracker
Every road closure, water issue, outage, construction notice and transit alert the city's agencies, utilities and newsrooms reported across Atlanta and the close-in metro, counted week by week. No login, no feed. Just the numbers, and where they landed.

Week by week
Road incidents fell from 189 to 145 last week. Transit alerts eased. Water, power and construction have held steady.
Weeks start on Sunday. One thing is counted once per place per day, and something that runs for days counts on the day it started. Brief lane blocks that cleared inside an hour are left out, closures scheduled to run longer than a week are roadworks rather than incidents, an outage counts when it left 10 or more customers without power, and stories about policy or funding are not incidents.
Where Atlanta was hit this week
59 percent of road incidents in the last 7 days happened on four roads.
Areas, most affected first
298 placedWhat the map says
Tap a row to see it on the map.Areas are measured from Five Points: within 2.5 miles is Downtown and Midtown, within 10 miles is that quadrant of Atlanta, and beyond that is the metro. An item with no coordinates is counted in the totals but not placed on the map. Corridors come from the road a source named. Interstates are split into the stretch north, south, east or west of downtown, since one number for a whole interstate hides where the trouble is. Council districts and NPUs are both the City of Atlanta's own boundaries, from its Department of City Planning, and each is named here by the three largest neighbourhoods it contains. They cover the city only, so anything on I-285, in Decatur, in Marietta or at the airport belongs to neither and is not in this view.
Sources are read every ten minutes, and the counts are rebuilt whenever one of them publishes something new. Last counted Sep 29, 7:05 PM ET.
Only what these sources published. Nothing inferred. Counted once when an agency and a newsroom report the same thing.
