ALDOT is hosting an online public involvement meeting for a proposed bridge replacement project on SR-17 north of Sulligent in Lamar County.

Visitors can view project information, review maps and submit comments through Oct. 9.

The project proposes replacing a total of five bridges over the Buttahatchee River and its four reliefs with new bridges that meet current design standards. The new bridges will be constructed on the existing alignment. Construction will be phased to allow access to adjacent properties for as great a duration as is practical.

A detour will be used during construction using I-22 and US-278.

Drivers should be aware of an upcoming speed limit change on SR-257 in Curry, Walker County.

The speed limit will be reduced from 55 mph to 45 mph along approximately two miles of SR-257, from north of Lane Concrete to south of Professional Landscaping. The change was requested by the Walker County Commission and follows an in-depth speed study conducted by ALDOT.

New speed limit signs are expected to be installed next week.
