LOXLEY, Alabama Work is well underway on a project to improve the intersection at County Road 68 and the Baldwin Beach Express.
The project, which is being entirely funded and contracted through Texas-based travel center giant Buc-ee’s, is two-fold, according to Tyler Mitchell, construction manager with the Baldwin County Highway Department.
The first project, which was originally planned through the Baldwin County Highway Department, calls for the widening and resurfacing of County Road 68, including the installation of extra turn lanes, Mitchell said, while the second project, originally planned through the Alabama Department of Transportation, calls for the modification of traffic lights at the intersection to add turn signals.
