A final design meeting was held last summer in Pinson concerning the interchanges of the Northern Beltline at Alabama highways 75 and 79.
Right-of-way acquisition in the vicinity of Alabama highways 75 and 79 should begin in early 2005 and be complete by 2006.
ALDOT’s revised estimate of the cost for the entire project is now $1.2 - $1.5 billion.
The MPO had previously added $1.85 million to the TIP for work on the first segment of the Northern Beltline, specifically preliminary engineering for grading, drainage and bridgework from west of Highway 79 to east of Highway 75; preliminary engineering for dual bridges over Highway 79; preliminary engineering for dual bridges over Highway 75; and preliminary engineering for ramps over both Highway 75 and Highway 79.
