'''State Route 118''' ('''SR 118''') is a {{convert|64|mi|km|adj=mid|-long}} [[State highway (US)|state highway]] in the [[Northwest Alabama|northwestern part]] of the [[U.S. state]] of [[Alabama]]. |
|||
'''State Route 118''', a [[state highway]] in [[Alabama]], is a 64 mile long route in the northwestern part of the state. Prior to the completion of sections of [[Corridor X (Appalachian Development Highway System)|Corridor X]]/Future [[Interstate 22 (Alabama)|Interstate 22]], SR-118 served only as the unsigned partner route of [[U.S. Highway 278 (Alabama)|U.S. Highway 278]] between the [[Mississippi]] state line near [[Sulligent, Alabama|Sulligent]] and [[Guin, Alabama|Guin]]. As new sections of Corridor X have opened, [[U.S. Highway 78 (Alabama)|U.S. Highway 78]] has been rerouted onto the new limited access highway, and the old sections of US-78 have been designated as SR-118, thus extending the route eastward by nearly 40 miles. The current eastern terminus of the route is west of [[Jasper, Alabama|Jasper]] at the junction with [[State Route 69 (Alabama)|State Route 69]]. |

Prior to the completion of sections of [[Interstate 22 in Alabama|Interstate 22]] (I-22), SR 118 served only as the [[Unsigned highway|unsigned]] partner route of [[U.S. Route 278 in Alabama|U.S. Route 278]] (US 278) between the [[Mississippi]] state line, west-southwest of [[Sulligent, Alabama|Sulligent]], and [[Guin, Alabama|Guin]]. As new sections of I-22 have opened, [[U.S. Route 78 in Alabama|US 78]] has been rerouted onto the new [[Interstate highway]], and the old sections of US 78 have been designated as SR 118, thus extending the highway eastward by nearly {{convert|40|mi|km}}. The current eastern terminus of the highway is in the western part of [[Jasper, Alabama|Jasper]], at an intersection with [[Alabama State Route 69|SR 69]]. |

State Route 118 (SR 118) is a 64-mile-long (103 km) state highway in the northwestern part of the U.S. state of Alabama.
History
[edit]Prior to the completion of sections of Interstate 22 (I-22), SR 118 served only as the unsigned partner route of U.S. Route 278 (US 278) between the Mississippi state line, west-southwest of Sulligent, and Guin. As new sections of I-22 have opened, US 78 has been rerouted onto the new Interstate highway, and the old sections of US 78 have been designated as SR 118, thus extending the highway eastward by nearly 40 miles (64 km). The current eastern terminus of the highway is in the western part of Jasper, at an intersection with SR 69.
Route description
[edit]This section has multiple issues. Please help improve it or discuss these issues on the talk page. (Learn how and when to remove these template messages)
|
Much of SR 118 is aligned along a narrow two-lane road. At Carbon Hill, the highway briefly expands to four lanes, only to revert to a two-lane road as it heads southeasterly towards Jasper. SR 118 starts at US 278 at the Mississippi state line, intersecting US 43/SR 171. It has an interchange with I-22/US 78/SR 4 east of Carbon Hill and again west of Jasper before it ends at SR 69.
