Drivers in Huntsville got some good news recently when the Huntsville City Council approved repaving more than 100 roads.
Last week, the Council approved an $8.99 million contract with SJ&L General Contractors to repave 108 roads throughout the city, according to WHNT. The council budgeted a record $19.5 million for road repair in 2023.
The city narrowed down its list of roads based on a rating system of 0-60, WAAY reported, with 0 being the best condition. Roads nearing a rating of 40 were considered for the list.
