More Elmore County roads will be resurfaced soon thanks to a partnership with ALDOT.

Two county roads in the Coosada and Millbrook communities will be resurfaced.

The Elmore County Commission voted at its Thursday meeting to partner with Alabama Department of Transportation for the project to be funded by $826,000 of federal monies. Portions of Rose Hill Road from Grandview Road to Coosada Road and Airport Road from Coosada Road to Highway 14 will get the work.

“We started the design over a year ago,” Elmore County chief engineer Luke McGinty said. “There are two schools on Airport Road, Coosada Elementary and Airport Road Intermediate School, and we wanted construction to happen while school is out.”

The commission also approved the extension of a contract to provide the county with backup internet access. The new three-year contract with AT&T is from the state contract list.

In other business, Mallard Point Plat 9 was approved by the commission. The 58-lot development is off Atkin Hill Road near Lake Jordan.

An eight lot plat on Jug Factory Road was also approved.
