Motorists in North Carolina can expect heavier than usual traffic conditions due to holiday travel from Friday, May 24th through Tuesday, May 28th.

Roads in the vicinity of the Speedway, northeast of Charlotte, expected to be impacted include I-77, I-85, I-485, US-29, and NC-49. Motorists can expect the heaviest congestion to occur from early morning on Saturday, May 25th, until early morning on Monday, May 27th.
