What is the
Industrial Access program?

Industrial access funds are intended to provide adequate public access for eligible projects as defined in Section 23-6-1(5) of the Code of Alabama. These funds are not intended for use in providing access to retail operations. The industry must be committed to new investment and the creation of new jobs.

The new access must be on public right-of-way (state, city or county), must allow normal public use and must comply with standards for design and construction accompanying the use of state funds. The project sponsor (city or county) will assume maintenance responsibilities for the completed facility consistent with the use of state funds, unless the improvements occur on facilities currently maintained by the state.
