The Alabama Department of Transportation's Industrial Access Program provides funding to construct or improve public access roads and bridges for new or expanding industrial facilities in Alabama. The program's goal is to facilitate economic development by ensuring that eligible industrial sites have adequate, publicly accessible transportation infrastructure. Projects must be located on public rights-of-way and are required to meet state standards for design and construction. Maintenance responsibility for completed infrastructure typically falls to the sponsoring city or county, unless the improvements are on state-maintained facilities.
