Three major upcoming Atlanta events in June are anticipated to cause substantial transportation delays. Plan on having employees work from home. Affected dates: June 19, 20, 26 and especially 27. Copa America Atlanta: On June 20 and 27, an anticipated 50,000 soccer fans will attend the Copa America Atlanta soccer matches at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. In addition to the large number of visitors staying in Buckhead, one team will be lodging in Buckhead during both games, leading to increased traffic congestion. These are considered major events, with both Atlanta Police Department and MARTA Police working 12-hour shifts, potentially affecting the availability of off-duty traffic officers in Buckhead during peak travel times. 2024 US Presidential Debate: On June 27, both political party candidates will be attending the first Presidential debate at CNN Studios in Midtown. Rolling roadblocks, road closures and considerably increased security are anticipated leading to extensive traffic delays and congestion. Solutions: Livable Buckhead is highly encouraging Buckhead employers to scale back in-person attendance to essential personnel only, as both the transit and road systems will have very high usage, leading to considerable congestion. Please plan on having employees work from home on June 19, 20, 26 and specifically 27.  Comments are closed.
