Southbound lanes of Highway 59 between the Intracoastal Waterway and Fort Morgan Road will be a construction zone for at least the next year. That’s how long Gulf Shores city officials expect it to take contractors to widen that stretch of road from two to three lanes.
) - A major road project is underway in Gulf Shores as crews work to widen Highway 59 to three southbound lanes. There are some changes to traffic patterns motorists will need to get used to.
It will take about a year to add a third lane to southbound Hwy 59 between the Intracoastal Waterway bridge and Ft. Morgan Rd. in Gulf Shores To do the work, the right lane has been shut down and the center turn lane converted to a traffic lane to keep two lanes of southbound traffic open. This means motorists won’t be able to make left turns to roads or businesses while this phase of the construction is going on.
Not only is the city of Gulf Shores growing by the year, the number of tourists is also growing. With a lot of them staying on the Ft. Morgan peninsula, expanding the highway to three lanes should help greatly with traffic flow during tourist season.
