Letters pour in on Alabama 36 rerouting through Hartselle
More than 150 letters commenting on the proposed reroute of Alabama 36 through Hartselle have reached the Alabama Highway Department division office since last Thursday’s hearing. Right Of Way Engineer Boyce Smith says late-postmarked comments through Sunday will be entered as testimony. Public comments will help decide which route to undertake, with options including Longhorn Pass or Main St routes, as endorsed by the City Council. The plan centers on a railroad overpass linking U.S. 31 with Interstate 65 about two miles east of Hartselle.
