0714 Chelsea Road Resurface
The planned resurfacing project for Chelsea Road (County Road 47) will run 8.5 miles between County Road 49 and State Highway 25.
Get ready for a smoother ride on part of Chelsea Road. On June 23, the Shelby County Commission approved a resolution for the Alabama Department of Transportation to resurface Chelsea Road from State Highway 25 in Columbiana to County Road 49 in Chelsea.
The project will resurface about 8.5 miles of roadway, but it has not opened to bidding yet. ALDOT Division 3 Engineer Brian Davis said bidding for the construction contract is scheduled to begin on Aug. 29, but that date is subject to change. Once bidding is open, Davis said work could begin on the roads in 30 to 45 days. The project’s cost and completion date will not be determined until a contract has been awarded.
