U.S. 280 Widened for Labor Day Traffic | Birmingham News
Description
Jefferson County drivers, rejoice—U.S. 280 is getting a major upgrade just in time for Labor Day! The Alabama DOT is opening newly widened eastbound lanes by Thursday, Sept. 3, with westbound lanes following Friday, easing traffic on one of the busiest stretches in the region. This three-mile stretch, seeing nearly 100K cars daily, now features a wider Pump House Road bridge, extra left-turn lanes, resurfaced roads, and new signage. Most work should be done by early October, thanks to local city support and public patience. Say goodbye to gridlock—this is your smoother commute coming soon.
