Alabama State Route 5

State Route 5 (SR 5) is a 197.775-mile-long (318.288 km) north–south state highway in western Alabama, United States. While it once extended – prior to the renumbering of the highways of Alabama in 1957– from Mobile north to the Tennessee state line, and was one of the major routes between Mobile and Birmingham, it has since been shortened to about half of its former length, and superseded by newer highways such as Interstate 65 (I-65) and SR 157.
