Expect interstate ramp closures in the Gadsden area on upcoming dates for maintenance paving by ALDOT.
The planned closures, and suggested alternate routes follow:
- On Thursday June 11, ALDOT will shut down the I-59 northbound ramp to I-759 eastbound at Exit 182 from 8:30 a.m. to about 3 p.m. Northbound I-59 traffic can continue to Exit 183 and either take US-431 southbound or return to I-59 southbound to I-759.
- On Monday June 15, crews will shut down the I-759 westbound ramp to I-59 southbound at the west end of I-759, beginning at 8:30 a.m. ALDOT estimates the closure lasting three or four hours. Traffic can exit to I-59 northbound instead, then take Exit 183 and return to I-59 southbound.
- The afternoon of Monday, June 15, after work on the ramp to I-59 southbound is complete, crews will shift operations to the ramp from I-759 westbound to I-59 northbound. ALDOT expects another three- or four-hour closure, probably beginning about noon and lasting until 4 p.m. Traffic can take I-59 southbound to Exit 181 (SR-77) to return to I-59 northbound.
