County Closes Beulah Road Near Perdido Landfill

November 15, 2011

The Beulah Road bridge north of the Perdido Landfill was closed Tuesday afternoon after an inspection on Monday revealed deficiencies significant enough for emergency repairs.

Signage for the detour routes will be erected.

The detour north of the bridge will be Muscogee Road to Highway 29 and south of the bridge will be Beulah Road to Nine Mile Road.  Variable message boards will be placed on Muscogee Road and at the corner of Nine Mile Road and Beulah Road.  Bridge closure signs will be placed on Beulah Road. Barricades will also be placed at the bridge.

Traffic south of the bridge and south of the Perdido Landfill can still access the landfill. Traffic north of the landfill will need to use the detour route, Muscogee to Highway 295 to Nine Mile Road west to Beulah Road north.

A reopening date has not been determined; repairs may take up to six weeks to complete.

    Time for that new on/off ramp . Kill two birds with one stone.

    When you hear people talk about “infrastructure”, things like that bridge are what they are talking about. Investing in it and making sure it is in good shape is a good thing that leads to more good things. Good things like jobs and the ability to get to work, and to your gramma’s, and to the ball game safely. Please remember that any time a discussion about jobs, or infrastructure, or the best uses of your tax dollars comes up.
