A hurricane preparation lane reversal simulation on Interstate 65 from Mobile to Montgomery will be held tomorrow, Wed., May 3, according the Alabama Department of Transportation.

Representatives from ALDOT, the Emergency Management Agency and local agencies will conduct the simulation, which will have no impact on drivers. However, drivers may se activities from these agencies along the interstate.

Interstate lane reversal, or contraflow, requires extensive communication from all agencies involved. This annual exercise provides agencies a dress rehearsal opportunity, which helps ensure an actual contraflow event will be executed safely.

In the event of an evacuation situation, ALDOT would convert all lanes on I-65 to the northbound direction from Mobile to Montgomery.
