Level5 Update: Alabama - Tuscaloosa

[jfergus11]

My Level: 1

The west / southbound Interstate 20/59 on-ramp from U.S. Highway 11 at Exit 79 in Tuscaloosa, Alabama is closed for approximately 8 months effective immediately due to bridge demolition/reconstruction on I-20/59. Here is a local news report indicating the timing:

I could not independently verify the dates because the state highway department web server that hosts that information is currently down.

The closed road segment is named "to I-20 W / I-59 S / Tuscaloosa, No city, Alabama " and can be found around coordinates (-87.40670, 33.17317)

Only this on-ramp segment is affected. The off-ramp to Highway 11 is still open.
