The Alabama Department of Transportation (ALDOT) has kicked off a major project aimed at optimizing 174 traffic signals across Mobile County.
Work began last Monday, and this project is all about making your drive smoother and faster.
The first wave of this project focuses on retiming 66 traffic signals in key areas like Cottage Hill Road, Water Street, Old Shell Road, and Dauphin Street.
This is just the beginning, with three more waves planned to cover the entire county.
What’s Happening and Where?
ALDOT’s plan is straightforward but powerful.
Over the next two months, they’re going to ensure that every single traffic light in Mobile County—whether it’s managed by the state, city, or county—is online, retimed, and connected.
Imagine hitting green lights all the way down your commute!
This first phase will focus on the busiest streets, where delays are most common.
You can expect to see work happening throughout the week on Cottage Hill Road, Water Street, Old Shell Road, and Dauphin Street.
