The Baldwin County Commission and the City of Gulf Shores are excited to announce they have entered into an Intergovernmental Roadway Construction Agreement for intersection improvements on County Road 6 at State Route 59.

The County Road 6 at State Route 59 Intersection Improvements will be the first project of the Baldwin County Commission’s 30 Cubed Program which is aimed at fostering collaboration with municipalities across the county to enhance the capacity and connectivity of our roadway system. 

“We’re proud to work hand-in-hand with Baldwin County on improvements to the County Road 6 and State Route 59 intersection, a project that will benefit everyone who lives, works, or visits this area,” said Mayor Robert Craft. “When the 30 Cubed Program was announced, we already had these intersection improvements designed and ready to go — it was the perfect fit. I’m glad the County agreed this should be the first 30 Cubed project. This kind of collaboration is exactly what we need to keep both our community and the county moving forward together.”

The total estimated cost of the project is $11,100,000.00 with the City of Gulf Shores funding $5,550,000.00 and the County funding the remaining $5,550,000.00. Eligible project costs include right-of-way acquisition, design, utility relocations, permitting, construction and construction engineering and inspection.

As Baldwin County continues to grow, initiatives like the 30 Cubed Program are vital to ensuring a resilient, well-connected, and efficient transportation network.

The 30 Cubed Program encourages voluntary partnerships with any municipality across Baldwin County, offering funding and support for roadway enhancements that align with regional transportation goals. By focusing on cooperative planning and resource sharing, 30 Cubed not only addresses current traffic demands but also prepares the region for future growth.
