(WTVY) - A lane closure on Main Street will begin next week as construction continues on Dothan’s new $56 million city hall, creating potential traffic delays for drivers traveling through downtown.The westbound lane of Main Street, also known as U.S. 84, will be closed for approximately six weeks as crews use a construction crane that poses a safety hazard to passing traffic. The closure will force westbound drivers headed toward McDonald’s and First Baptist Church to merge into the left lane.“You won’t be able to go into that right-hand lane on Main Street,” said Tommy Wright, Dothan Public Works director. “You’ll have to swing out onto the left lane on Main Street, so that’s going to cause a little delay as people get used to that.”The lane restriction will remain in place until around Feb. 13, when normal traffic flow is expected to resume. City officials said the closure is necessary due to the construction crane’s proximity to the roadway.“It’s going to be an impressive structure there, so a lot of people are going to want to look at it,” Wright said. “We just encourage everyone to be safe and try to maintain focus on your driving as you come through this area.”Main Street serves as a direct path connecting Dothan’s west side to its east side, with thousands of vehicles passing through daily.City Manager Randall S. Morris said the city hall construction project remains on track for completion in January 2027.“I actually went to the site last, well, this past Wednesday,” Morris said. “And everything’s going good. Still looking at a January of 2027 completion date for both City Hall.”Drivers should also expect detours and closures on Flynn Road, a heavily trafficked residential road. Closures between Murphy Mill and Redmond Road are scheduled to last until this weekend.Download the WTVY News4 app to get alerts and stories the moment they are published.
