Traffic is moving again and lanes are open on I-985, according to the Hall County Sheriff's Office, after multiple wrecks with injuries backed traffic up in northbound lanes.
Two people were transported to the Northeast Georgia Medical Center from the I-985 wreck, and one person was transported from the wreck near the new Lanier Tech campus on Ga. 365, according to Hall County Fire Services.
