The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency (ALEA) will temporarily close all driver license offices, including the two in Tallapoosa County, next week as part of a statewide effort to roll out a new modernized driver license system. 

Governor Kay Ivey’s Office along with ALEA officially announced the new system in February. The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency Driver License System, simply known as LEADS, will completely revitalize the current system that has been in place for nearly two decades.
