FOLEY – Access improvements on Fern Avenue will begin next week at the intersection of Alabama 59.

The project will start after the Memorial Day weekend. Construction is scheduled to be completed in six to eight weeks.

The work will include adding a right-turn lane and resurfacing on East Fern Avenue.

The roadwork is anticipated to involve intermittent single-lane closures with flagging operations. Traffic control signs will be in place before construction begins.
