The Georgia Department of Transportation issued the following announcement on overnight lane closures on Macland Road SR/360 Friday and Sunday nights:
Contractors for the Georgia Department of Transportation will install overnight lane closures on SR 360/Macland Road in Cobb County this weekend as crews continue activities related to a resurfacing project on SR 360 from New Macland Road to Windy Hill Road. Resurfacing improves the condition of the roadway and provides a smoother ride for drivers.
Weather and on-site conditions permitting, one alternating left or right lane will be closed on Macland Road eastbound and westbound in the project area on Friday, November 19 and Sunday, November 21 from 9 p.m. until 5 a.m. the following mornings. Work crews will be patching and milling the roadway.
Recommended safety precautions
The GDOT recommends the following safety precautions for drivers approaching the work zone:
As always, motorists traveling in the area are reminded to reduce their speeds in the work zone. Motorists are also encouraged to wear seatbelts, eliminate distractions behind the wheel, and plan their routes before getting on the road by calling 511 for real-time information on work status and traffic conditions.

You need to learn to read a calendar
Good catch, although I think this is more a matter of most of the GDOT lane closings being consecutive days, and me cutting pasting and changing without enough attention to detail
