Southbound mainline + intersection to open later
Traffic issues are not entirely over, however. Southbound traffic continues to use only the southbound frontage road for now.
The contractor anticipates opening the mainline and overpass to southbound traffic in mid-October. Remaining and ongoing work items include constructing final sections of barrier rail and lighting foundations, lighting installation and paving.Ā
TheĀ intersection of Mastin Lake Road with the frontage roads under the overpassĀ should also open in mid-October, following paving.
ALDOT officials said to expect a lane closure on the northbound frontage road and a shoulder closure on the northbound mainline just south of Mastin Lake Road while the contractor constructs an on-ramp connecting the frontage road to the mainline.
