PRICEVILLE — There’s good news and bad news for travelers on I-65 in Morgan County.

The good news is the potholes that plague northbound motorists will be repaired.

The bad news is it will result in traffic delays this week.

The Alabama Department of Transportation said crews will be paving Interstate 65 northbound in the Hartselle and Priceville areas this week.

Motorists are advised to expect delays due to single-lane closures between Exit 325 at Thompson Road in Hartselle and Exit 334 at Alabama 67 in Priceville. Work will take place from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily through Thursday, weather permitting.

Message boards will be in place to alert motorists in advance of the closure.

This maintenance paving is unrelated to this week’s rehabilitation of the I-65 Tennessee River Bridges, which will affect southbound I-65 nightly.
