ALDOT: AL-53 Construction Notice

​Expect AL 53 Delays, Underpass Closures

Single-lane closures are...

...​ possible between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. daily the next three to four weeks.

Motorists may also encounter closures of the one-lane underpass at the CSX railroad near the intersection of Alabama 53, First Avenue West, and Seventh Street in Ardmore when paving operations are in the immediate area. During underpass closures, motorists can use alternate routes such as Mooresville Road to State Line Road, Jones Avenue to State Line Road, or Davis Road to First Avenue West.

Reed Contracting has completed milling on the 2.5-mile project and is currently in the process of patching. Paving will begin later this week if weather permits.

The contract amount for this project is $698,907.
