U.S. 280 & County Rd 41: Brace for Delays

0:00Drivers on U.S. 280, near County Road 41 in Shelby County, should brace for delays this weekend. The Alabama Department of Transportation plans asphalt repairs in Saturday, March 28, and Sunday, March 29, weather permitting. Crews will focus on patching worn sections, right at that busy intersection. Work runs from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day on both eastbound and westbound lanes. One lane will stay open in both directions during the closures, so traffic can still move, but expect backups as volumes bill do the area. Officials say lanes should fully reopen by 4 p.m. daily. They recommend alternate routes, tweaking your travel times, and watching for work zone signs. Plan ahead to skip the slowdowns and keep everyone safe out there.
