Summary
ALDOT’s big highway upgrade on I-59/20 between Hueytown and Fairfield is set to begin by end of 2027, adding lanes and replacing bridges — but expect major headaches: southbound lanes will be shut down entirely, forcing detours via I-65 and I-459, while northbound traffic will face a wild contraflow setup where lanes flip directions to keep things moving. With construction lasting up to two years and public input due by June 26, locals and commuters need to act fast — this is one road project that’ll seriously reshape your commute.
