The next phase of a $16.5 million project to resurface the entirety of I-65 in Morgan County will begin the evening of Sunday, May 10, weather permitting.
The contractor, Rogers Group, will resurface from just south of SR-36 (Exit 328) in Hartselle to south of the I-565 interchange (Exit 340) in Limestone County. The contractor will patch the pavement prior to the start of milling and resurfacing.
Nightly lane closures
To reduce traffic impacts, most work requiring lane closures will take place between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m., Sunday nights through Thursday nights. ALDOT advises drivers to expect delays due to single-lane closures.

Previous phase of project
During the first phase of the project, Rogers Group and their subcontractors substantially completed the following work:
- Resurfacing from Hurricane Creek, north of Vinemont in Cullman County, to south of SR-36 in Hartselle
- Raising two local road overpasses to improve clearance
- A bridge repair that was added to the project after the contract was awarded
These areas remain part of an ongoing project and may be subject to lane closures for minor work items.
Other I-65 projects
Separate projects on the same segment of I-65 include:
- The ongoing installation of traffic cameras and dynamic message signs
- A substantially completed project to replace interstate signs
- Rehabilitation of the Tennessee River Bridges, which is also nearing completion
