Online and In-person Public Involvement: East Gadsden Connector

Project Overview

Location: Gadsden (Etowah County)

The Alabama Department of Transportation (ALDOT) is proposing to provide a six‐lane roadway from the end of the Coosa River Bridge to the intersection of State Route (SR) 1 (US‐431) and SR‐74 (US‐278) in Gadsden, Alabama.
