Beginning at 8 PM Tuesday night, the Alabama Department of Transportation
will install Raised Reflective Pavement Markers on sections of I-65 from the Mt
Olive Road Interchange (exit 272) in Gardendale to the Jefferson/Blount County
Line, near milepost 283.9
In areas where exit ramps diverge from the travel lanes, (gore
area), the outside (right) lane will be closed in the area of work. The ramps
will remain open to traffic, but will be narrowed to allow adequate space for
equipment and personnel to safely perform the work. As work is
completed in the northbound direction of travel, it will continue in the
southbound direction.
This work will be completed as quickly as possible, dependent on
weather conditions and work progress. All travel lanes
will be reopened to traffic by 5 a.m. each day.
