The flooding across north Alabama on Saturday has led to the closure of a major road in Huntsville.

Hobbs Island Road, located in south Huntsville and connecting U.S. 231 with U.S. 431, is out of service, police said Saturday night.

Hobbs Island Road is near the Tennessee River and Ditto Landing – the riverside recreation area in south Huntsville – that has been flooded for several days.

Hobbs Island Road is also an alternative route for motorists with the closure last month of Cecil Ashburn Drive over Huntsville Mountain.
