Beginning at 6 a.m. tomorrow, Tuesday, June 24, Canal Road will close to all traffic as crews set large bridge girders over the roadway. The closure is part of ongoing construction on the new Intracoastal Waterway Bridge.
Here’s what motorists need to know:
- Canal Road will be closed from 6 a.m. Tuesday, June 24, through 6 p.m. Thursday, June 26.
- The closure is necessary to safely install large structural girders over the road.
- Detour signs will guide drivers to use County Road 4 (Cotton Creek Drive) as an alternate route.
- Drivers should expect delays and plan ahead, especially with increased summer beach and vacation traffic in the area.
ALDOT encourages both locals and beach-bound visitors to allow extra travel time and drive with caution in work zones.
