ALDOT proposes AL-14 resurfacing and road diet through Greensboro

The Alabama Department of Transportation has proposed resurfacing a section of AL-14 through Greensboro and changing the road’s configuration with a road diet. The proposal covers AL-14 from west of Holbrook Place to AL-61, placing drivers, businesses and property owners along that corridor at the center of a transportation project that could change how traffic moves through the city.

ALDOT identifies the project as STPAA-HSIP-0014(564). It entered formal public-involvement review with a meeting scheduled for Aug. 28, 2025. The proposal is not the same as a final construction plan: the available project record does not establish that the road diet has been finally approved, does not identify a final lane configuration and does not provide a construction date.

What the proposal could change

Resurfacing would address the roadway within the stated project limits, while the proposed road diet would reconfigure how space on AL-14 is used. The available information does not say how many lanes would remain or provide a final design for the corridor.

Because those details are still unsettled, the practical effects cannot yet be described as final. The project could change traffic flow, turning movements and conditions for pedestrians. It could also affect access to businesses and adjacent properties along the section between west of Holbrook Place and AL-61.

That uncertainty matters to people who use AL-14 for daily trips, deliveries, commercial access or travel through Greensboro. A change in the road’s configuration could affect how vehicles enter or leave nearby properties and where drivers make turns, but the available record does not establish the specific locations or traffic pattern that would result.

Review remains ahead of construction

The Aug. 28 meeting marked a public-involvement step, but the approved record does not document an outcome from that meeting. It also does not show that construction has begun. The next substantive steps identified for the project are ALDOT’s continued review, design work and eventual construction scheduling.

For now, the project remains a documented proposal for Greensboro, Alabama, rather than a completed road project. Residents, commuters, local businesses and adjacent property owners will need the final design and schedule before the project’s effects on access, turning and traffic can be known with greater precision.

The location is Greensboro, Alabama, and the project concerns the local AL-14 corridor between west of Holbrook Place and AL-61—not a development associated with Greensboro, North Carolina.
