The Trussville Police Department on its website has announced that the Alabama Department of Transportation plans to close eastbound lanes of Interstate 20 on April 8.
Eastbound lanes of I-20 will be closed from the I-20/Interstate 59 interchange to Interstate 459 for road repairs.
Eastbound I-20 traffic going toward St. Clair County or Atlanta will be required to take I-59 North to Exit 138 back to I-20 East.
Upon completion of the eastbound lanes, work will begin on the westbound lanes and these routes will be reversed
.
These repairs are estimated to take about three months.
Motorists should be prepared for major delays on I-59, I-459 and U.S. Highway 11 during this time.
