Wikipedia:WikiProject U.S. Roads/Alabama/Early numbering
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A renumbering happened between the 1927 and 1928 maps. The State Highway Department was reorganized in mid-1927, so it was probably then.
- Early auto trails[1]
- Bankhead Highway (SR-8), across the state via Anniston - Talladega - Birmingham - Jasper
- Dixie Overland Highway (SR-26), across the state from Columbus via Montgomery - Selma to Meridian
- Jackson Highway (SR-5), Tennessee via Florence - Russellville - Vernon to Mississippi
- Bee Line Highway (SR-7), Tennessee via Athens - Decatur - Birmingham - Montgomery - Troy - Dothan
- Florida Short Route (SR-1), Tennessee via Huntsville - Guntersville - Gadsden - Anniston - Talladega - Dadeville - Opelika to Columbus
This list is incomplete; you can help by expanding it.
- SR-1 (Florida Short Route), Phenix City to TN
- SR-2, Livingston to GA
- Now SR-7
- SR-3 (Lee Highway), MS to TN
- Now SR-2
- SR-4, Montgomery to Heflin
- Now SR-9
- SR-5 (Jackson Highway)
- SR-6 (Craft Highway, AKA part of the Jefferson Davis Highway)
- SR-7 (Bee Line Highway), FL to TN
- SR-8 (Bankhead Highway)
- SR-9, Loxley to Ada
- SR-10 (Old Spanish Trail)
- SR-15
- SR-26 (Dixie Overland Highway)
- SR-48, Albertville to Fort Payne
- SR-53, Valley Head to GA
- Now SR-117
It doesn't look like the Brandon Highway - Montgomery, Greenville, Camden, Livingston, Meridian, MS - had a single number.
