The Publix development is well underway, land is being cleared at the corner of Highway 280 and Dadeville Road for the Lake Martin Commercial Group, and the county is seemingly getting closer and closer to breaking ground on the new ag center in Jackson’s Gap.

In short, development is picking up steadily in and around Alexander City. With that comes an increase in the amount of trucks on the road.
