👀 There’s movement in Shiloh today as activity picks up around the ongoing standing water issue along US Hwy 84. More updates to come.

ALDOT's contractors have pumped the stagnant stormwater out of the new US 84 Drainage Improvement Project detention basin after it sat for 54 consecutive days.

👀 Day 54. Fresh footage shows standing water still plaguing Shiloh, Alabama. More than seven weeks later, residents are still waiting for a lasting solution to the US Hwy 84 drainage problem. youtu.be/3EsEgCCwSvo

🌊 Day 53. Stagnant water remains in Shiloh’s US Hwy 84 detention basin without draining. Where is the permanent solution and accountability? youtu.be/shLyfLwLwCY

🌊 The #Shiloh Drainage Improvement Project is nearing final completion, but residents still deserve to know what the work will accomplish. #ALDOT needs to hold a public meeting to explain the project and answer questions from families who have dealt with 8 years of flooding. 💻 To learn more, visit ow.ly/repo50YIfc4 @SenKatieBritt @RepTerriSewell @repscfigures @RepYvetteClarke @splcenter @selc_org #JusticeforShiloh #Justcompensation #Blacklandloss #takings #FifthAmendment

👥 The #Shiloh Drainage Improvement Project is almost complete, but residents should not be left guessing about the results. #ALDOT needs to hold a public information meeting and answer questions from the families affected by years of flooding. 💻 ow.ly/SyxJ50YIewf @SenKatieBritt @RepTerriSewell @repscfigures @RepYvetteClarke @splcenter @selc_org #JusticeforShiloh #Justcompensation #Blacklandloss #takings #FifthAmendment #flooding

🚧👥 Eight years of flooding have affected #Shiloh homeowners and their properties. With the Drainage Improvement Project near final completion, #ALDOT should explain what was done, how it is expected to work, and what comes next. 💻 ow.ly/XMsX50YNEUC @SenKatieBritt @RepTerriSewell @repscfigures @RepYvetteClarke @splcenter @selc_org #JusticeforShiloh #Justcompensation #Blacklandloss #takings #FifthAmendment

👥 #ALDOT is close to finishing the Drainage Improvement Project in #Shiloh, yet affected residents have not had a public opportunity to discuss the work with project officials. The community deserves a meeting before the project closes out. 💻 ow.ly/SyxJ50YIewf @SenKatieBritt @RepTerriSewell @repscfigures @RepYvetteClarke @splcenter @selc_org #JusticeforShiloh #Justcompensation #Blacklandloss #takings #FifthAmendment
