ALDOT will hold in-person and online public involvement meetings this month for a proposed road widening project in DeKalb County.

The project would construct additional lanes on about two miles of SR-75 in Rainsville north of SR-35, to transform the corridor into a five-lane highway from Ranch Road to the intersection with Church Avenue and Marshall Road.

The in-person meeting will be from 5 to 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 29, at the Tom Bevill Enrichment Center 115 Main St. W., Rainsville. The open-house meeting will allow attendees to ask questions and share comments. ALDOT representatives will be on hand to answer questions; there will be no a formal presentation.

Online public involvement is underway at www.aldotinvolved.com. People can review project information, including maps showing proposed changes and right-of-way acquisitions there and at the in-person meeting.

Written comments submitted will become part of the official project record. Send comments to AL75-AddLanes@dot.state.al.us.
