East Cobb Black Friday traffic: Not so frightful

The holiday shopping season has begun, and with it traffic bottlenecks around major retailing areas. As far as East Cobb Black Friday traffic is concerned, however, there’s not much that’s going to delay your commute, other than the usual local travel conditions.

As of noon Friday, there have been no major traffic accidents in East Cobb that have been reported. Camera photos fromĀ Georgia 511 (Georgia DOT’s real-time update service) included here were taken around 12 p.m., with the heaviest traffic around major malls. Those include Cumberland and Town Center, where lots were filling up, but getting around those areas doesn’t appear to be too hectic.

A reminder that Cobb government offices are closed on Friday, including libraries, but they’ll reopen at their usual times on Saturday.
