As an added precaution during the heavily traveled holiday, the Alabama Department of Transportation announced Thursday there would be no temporary lane closures on Alabama interstates from noon Friday until midnight Monday, Sept. 3.

Limiting roadwork during this busy holiday period is a safety measure for the traveling public, construction industry workers and maintenance crews. Throughout the year, ALDOT limits road construction during major holiday weekends. Emergency lane closures may be possible, depending on specific circumstances on interstates and other state roadways.

ALDOT’s mission is to provide a safe, efficient, environmentally and economically sound transportation network across Alabama. For road condition information, visit drivesafealabama.org and www.dot.state.al.us.
