ALDOT says work is expected to begin Monday, July 11 and will continue until the end of 2022. The 2.28-mile, $2.42 million project is contracted out to Midsouth Paving.

Midsouth Paving will also only be allowed to close main stretch of the road between 7 p.m. and 6 a.m. to reduce the impact on traffic.

ALDOT said roadway closures will not be allowed from Friday evening through Sunday morning when the University of Alabama has a home football gam in Tuscaloosa.
