Shiloh residents aren’t asking for favors. They are demanding accountability. Their land was taken, their homes damaged, and their health put at risk. The law is clear: takings require just compensation. #ALDOT must answer in court. #JusticeForShiloh insideclimatenews.org/news/09022025/…

Before 2017, US Highway 84 was a two-lane road at an elevation consistent with the surrounding topography. In 2017, with funding in part from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), ALDOT took a simple dirt road that ran through Shiloh and expanded US 84 highway from two…
