Separate wrecks shut down key routes in northeast Georgia

Two separate Friday crashes in Habersham County temporarily shut down major local roads in both directions. A two-vehicle collision on Highway 115 at Peachtree Cove in Clarkesville sent two people to the hospital, while an overturned tractor-trailer closed East Mize Road in Demorest. Both incidents disrupted traffic and forced detours for drivers. They highlight ongoing road safety concerns and the ripple effects of serious crashes on local travel.
