MORGAN COUNTY, AL (WAFF) -
Work to repair a slide under Interstate 65 near the 330 mile marker in
Morgan County will cause the closure of a six mile stretch of the northbound
lanes.
An Alabama Department of Transportation official said the agency is still in
the bid process with contractors, but ALDOT hopes to begin the work early next
week.
The slope slide became an emergency situation after heavy rains over the
past few weeks caused a large shift in the ground the supports a section of the
interstate.
The ALDOT official said the lanes will be closed between the 328 and 334
mile marker. Lighter cars will be detoured by law enforcement to the 325 and
328 exits. Semi trucks will be directed to take the 318 exit, with oversized
trucks taking the 310 exit in Cullman.
ALDOT officials said the work will begin as soon as the contractor wins the
bid and Governor Bentley's office approves the plan.
Work to fix a sinkhole two miles south of the slide in March 2010 took eight
days and closed 16 miles of I-65 northbound. The slide is related to the
sinkhole.
WAFF 48 News will provide the latest information on air and online. Sign up

lanes.
Road work on Interstate 65's landslide will cause detours and a six mile closure.
