The Alabama Department of Transportation plans to close SR-91 just south of Arkadelphia in Cullman County for 10 days for a bridge repair.

SR-91 in the immediate area of the bridge at Dorsey Creek will be completely closed to traffic beginning about 4 p.m. Friday, Oct. 4, and will remain closed for the duration of the repair. Motorists should also expect intermittent single-lane closures Monday, Sept. 30, through Friday, Oct. 4, leading up to the full closure

ALDOT’s Statewide Bridge Crew will work every day weather permits, including weekends, to replace a steel cap — a beam that disperses load to the bridge piles.

Message boards at key intersections will advise motorists of the detour to SR-69. Commercial vehicles must use the detour route. Local traffic may use other alternate routes.
