Continued work on Interstate 20 will cause more delays next week.

According to a release from the Alabama Department of Transportation, state troopers will conduct rolling roadblocks (weather permitting) between Exits 144 and 153 Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, from 7-7:10 p.m. in the eastbound lanes, and from 7-7:20 p.m. in the westbound lanes, for blasting. On-ramps to I-20 will be closed at Exit 147 (Brompton) eastbound and at Exit 152 (Eden) westbound during the rolling roadblocks.

This work is part of the ALDOT’s Progress 20 project to widen the last four-lane segment of I-20 in St. Clair County. The scheduled completion date on the project is Oct. 1, 2012.

A reduced speed limit of 45 mph is in effect throughout the work zone. State troopers will control traffic and strictly enforce speed limits.
