Roads and Junctions We Know in West Mobile
West Mobile is the large, mostly suburban side of the city that spreads west of I-65 toward the county line. Airport Boulevard runs through the middle of it all the way out to Mobile Regional Airport, Cottage Hill Road and Zeigler Boulevard run beside it to the south and north, and Old Shell Road and Moffett Road mark the north side. Schillinger Road, Hillcrest Road and Cody Road are the main north and south routes that tie the neighborhoods together.
The corners that back up most are Airport Boulevard at Cody Road, Cottage Hill Road at Cody Road, Cottage Hill Road at Schillinger Road and Zeigler Boulevard at Schillinger Road, where school traffic, commuters and work trucks all meet at the same lights twice a day. Most west Mobile drivers commute east every morning on Airport Boulevard, Cottage Hill Road or I-65, and those long, start and stop drives in summer heat are hard on brakes, cooling fans, transmissions and batteries.
Landmarks and Things to Do in West Mobile
USA Health Providence Hospital, an eleven story hospital tower on a wooded campus of nearly three hundred acres, is one of the best known sights on the west side, and thousands of people drive to it every day for work and care. Farther west, Airport Boulevard ends at Mobile Regional Airport, which is also home to the U.S. Coast Guard Aviation Training Center, where Coast Guard pilots and aircrew train in helicopters and airplanes. In between are churches, schools, ball fields, shopping centers and some of the largest neighborhoods in the city.
Homes in west Mobile usually have driveways and garages that work well for most repairs, and the subdivisions off Cottage Hill Road, Zeigler Boulevard and Cody Road are easy to find. At Providence, tell us the lot, the row and the nearest entrance, and check with security if you work there. At an office or a store lot, the nearest sign and the row number are all the mechanic needs.
Weather and Your Car in West Mobile
West Mobile sits a little higher and farther from the bay than downtown, so it floods less, but the wide, busy roads here are where sudden summer downpours catch drivers out. Water sheets across Airport Boulevard, Schillinger Road and Cottage Hill Road in seconds, and worn tires and tired wiper blades make hydroplaning a real risk. Spring and fall storms also bring tornado warnings to the west side, and a car with a weak battery or a cooling problem is a bad car to be stuck in when one comes through.
Open driveways and big parking lots soak up the sun from May into October, and that heat wears batteries out and works A/C systems hard every afternoon. Construction across the west side, from new subdivisions to road widening, leaves nails, screws and gravel on the roads, and a slow leak from a nail in the tread is one of the most common surprises on a west Mobile morning. Pine pollen in the spring settles on every car and fills cabin filters fast.
Common Car Problems We Fix Near West Mobile
West Mobile calls are often batteries that give up in a hot driveway or hospital lot, A/C that blows warm, brakes worn by the daily commute, overheating in traffic on Airport Boulevard, check engine lights, worn tires and wipers before storm season, starters, alternators and scheduled maintenance on family cars, SUVs and pickups.
Hospital Shifts, Long Commutes and Busy Families
Nurses, doctors and staff at Providence work long shifts, and a car that will not start in the lot after a night shift is a long way from home. Families in the big subdivisions often run two or three cars between work, school and practices, and none of them can sit at a shop for a day. A mechanic who comes to the driveway in the evening, or to the hospital lot during a shift, fixes the problem where the car is parked, with the price agreed before any work starts.
