Highway 21 sinkholes to be reparied

Some relief may be in the works for drivers that use Highway 21 in Talladega county.  Department of transportation officials met yesterday with representatives from the Talladega EMA to discuss an 8 million dollar emergency construction project that would repair sinkholes along the highway.  ALDOT assistant  division engineer Robert Camp, says The goal is to have a contractor on the ground putting up signs by the end of July and The contractors will work around the clock to complete the task which they anticipate would take from three to five weeks.  Camp speculated that both sinkholes could be as deep as 100 feet and there have been past efforts to patch up the surface when it has shown signs of collapsing.
