The route that Google Maps is showing is to come down I-75 to the I-285 bypass, then go East and get on I-85 north, and then south on US 129 to Athens, GA. I'm sure you found a much better way than that or else you would have taken either the HOV straight through town or the I-285 west loop back to I-75 by the airport.
I believe while you can get great info here, there best thing to do is use WAZSE app while on your way down. While we can all give you great info on what we know to be the concerns, it has up to the moment info for accidents, construction, ect.
