Interstate 22
(Redirected from Interstate 22 in Alabama)
Interstate 22 (I-22) is a 202.22-mile-long (325.44 km)

Interstate Highway in the US states of Mississippi and
Alabama, connecting I-269 near Byhalia, Mississippi, to
I-65 near Birmingham, Alabama. I-22 is also
Corridor X of the Appalachian Development Highway
Interstate 22
System (ADHS). Designated in 2012, I-22 follows the
route of older US Route 78 (US 78) and is concurrent Corridor X
with the route for all but its eastern most 11 miles
(18 km). The freeway mainly spans rural areas and
passes numerous small towns along its route, including
Fulton, Tupelo, New Albany, and Holly Springs in
Mississippi and Jasper, Winfield, and Hamilton in
Alabama.
I-22 was upgraded to Interstate Highway standards to

close a gap in the Interstate Highway System, allowing
for more direct connections between cities in the
southeast with cities in the central part of the country. I-
22 indirectly connects I-240, I-40, I-55, and I-69 in the
Memphis metropolitan area via US 78 and I-269 with I- Wikimedia | © OpenStreetMap

Birmingham, Alabama, as of 2016. (MS 178; the former alignment
The freeway is planned to be of US 78) with latter route
extended east toward US 31. providing local access to small
towns along the route. The
first major community the
freeway passes is Holly Springs, the county seat of Marshall Eastbound I-22/US 78 in Potts
Camp, Mississippi
County. I-22/US 78 bypasses the city to the southwest; exits 26
(Landfill Road) and 30 (MS 4/MS 7) provide access to the city.
Continuing southeastward, the freeway than passes through the
Holly Springs National Forest and into Benton County passing near several small towns that are
accessible through interchanges with or connecting to MS 178. Upon exiting the forest into Union
County, I-22/US 78 approaches the county seat of New Albany before passing just southwest of it with
four exits (60, 61, 63, and 64) providing direct access to the city. MS 30 shares a brief concurrency
with I-22/US 78 between exits 61 and 64 with the latter exit being at MS 15. To the southeast of the
city near the town of Sherman in Pontotoc County, I-22/US 78 has a second brief concurrency with
MS 9 starting between the exits 73 and 76. Exit 73 is a six-ramp partial cloverleaf interchange, the first
non-diamond interchange on the freeway since its starting point at I-269, a distance of about 61.2
miles (98.5 km). I-22/US 78 then enters Lee County and passes north of Tupelo, its county seat, with
five exits (81, 82, 85, 86, and 87) connecting to the city, including an interchange with MS 178
(exit 81) northwest of Tupelo along with interchanges with the Natchez Trace Parkway (exit 85) and
US 45/Corridor V (exit 86) north of the city with Corridor V becoming concurrent with I-22/US 78.
The freeway then turns eastward and has an interchange with MS 371 north of Mooreville before
crossing into Itawamba County. I-22/US 78/Corridor V then has an interchange with MS 178 (to MS
363) in Peppertown before crossing the Tennessee–Tombigbee Waterway to its next interchange with
South Adams Street (exit 104), which provides access to the community of Fulton, the county seat.
MS 25 becomes concurrent with I-22/US 78/Corridor V and heads eastward along the route at the
exit as well. A weigh station is also just beyond the exit. One exit later (108), MS 25 and Corridor V
branch off and head northward. I-22/US 78 then turns east-southeastward with one final interchange
(exit 113) with MS 23 south of Tremont before crossing into Alabama.[4]
Alabama
Still a four-lane freeway, I-22/US 78 (internally designated as State

Route 4, or SR 4) enters into northwestern Alabama northwest of Bexar
in Marion County and heads east-southeastward. Its first interchange
(exit 3) is located just east of town at County Route 33 (CR 33). I-
22/US 78/SR 4's next four exits (7, 11, 14, and 16) serve the city of
Hamilton, the county seat. The freeway curls around the southwest side
of the city. Exit 7 gives I-22/US 78/SR 4 access to SR 19 and SR 74, exit 11
is an interchange with SR 17 and exit 16 is an interchange with
US 43/US 278/SR 171. The final exit also provides access to the
community of Guin. I-22/US 78 then passes south of Brilliant which is
accessible by interchanges with SR 44 (exit 26, which also serves the
town of Twin and the city of Guin) and SR 129 (exit 30, which also serves
the community of Winfield). An interchange with SR 233 (exit 34) serves
the community of Glen Allen before I-22/US 78/SR 4 crosses into Walker Corridor X ADHS shields in
County. Its next interchange, SR 13 (exit 39), serves the communities of Marion County, Alabama,
Eldridge and Natural Bridge. Carbon Hill is served by CR 11 (exit 46, prior to its redesignation as
which also serves Nauvoo) and SR 118 (exit 52; former US 78 Alternate). I-22
I-22/US 78/SR 4 then widens to six lanes and has an unsigned
interchange (exit 53) with future SR 102. I-22/US 78/SR 4 then passes
just south of Jasper, the county seat, which is served by four exits (57, 61, 63, and 65) with SR 118,
SR 69, SR 269, and Industrial Parkway. The freeway narrows to four lanes at exit 57 but expands back
to six lanes at exit 63. The next three exits (70, 72, and 78) serve Cordova, Parrish, Dora, Sumiton,
Wyatt, and Quinton. I-22/US 78/SR 4 then enters Jefferson County and has an interchange with
CR 45 (exit 81), which serves West Jefferson. Its next interchange is with SR 5 (exit 85); the exit
marks the end of the concurrency with US 78/SR 4 which branches off and becomes concurrent with
SR 5 south, which serves as a local road for Graysville and the northwestern suburbs of Birmingham.
Between exits 85 and 87 (CR 112) is the future site of the interchange with I-222 (exit 86), which
would connect I-22 to the proposed I-422 (Corridor X-1/Birmingham Northern Beltline). I-22 than
passes through Coalburg before ending at an interchange with I-65 (unsigned exits 95A and 95B)
approximately five miles (8.0 km) north of downtown Birmingham. However, an additional
interchange (future exit 95C) just beyond I-65 to US 31 is currently under construction.[4]
History
The concept of a Memphis-to-Birmingham expressway was discussed as early as the 1950s but did not
move beyond talk for more than 20 years.[5]
When studies for I-22 began, the highway was proposed to continue west to downtown Memphis,
Tennessee, and end at I-240 and I-69. Several other proposals were also considered. One took I-22
along I-269 to I-55/I-69 and another took it along Crump Boulevard to end at I-55, but those plans
never materialized.
The part of I-22 just east of Fulton, Mississippi, was approved by Congress as "Corridor X" in 1978, as
a part of the ADHS, and parts of I-22 have been under construction ever since.[6] Corridor X was also
designated as "High Priority Corridor 10" in the federal National Highway System Designation Act of
1995 and as "High Priority Corridor 45" in later legislation.[7] Over the many years of development,
the project changed multiple times.
In 2004, Corridor X was designated as Future I-22 by Public Law Number 108-199,[8] and the
designation was made official on April 18, 2005.[9] In Alabama and Mississippi, blue signs reading
"FUTURE/I-22/CORRIDOR" at left and an I-22 shield with "FUTURE" instead of "INTERSTATE" at
the right were unveiled on April 18, 2005.[9]
The first major completed section of the route between the Mississippi state line and Jasper was
opened to traffic on November 22, 2005.[10] Exits on the Jasper Bypass portion of I-22 were originally
numbered using a kilometer-based sequence because, at the time this stretch was opened, it appeared
that all highways in the US were going to be measured using the metric system. The final decision was
made to remain using miles, and they have been renumbered according to the highway's mileposts. A
six-mile (9.7 km) segment between Graysville and Brookside was opened in June 2007,[11] and
another 20-mile (32 km) section of Future I-22 between Jasper and Graysville was opened in
November 2007.[12] A 1.8-mile (2.9 km) segment between Cherry Avenue in Forestdale to a point
about 2.5 miles (4.0 km) short of I-65 near Fultondale, including an interchange with Coalburg Road,
was opened in December 2009.[13] Next came the connection of I-22 with I-65 and US 31.[13] The
Alabama Department of Transportation (ALDOT) widened Coalburg Road from its interchange with
I-22 southward to Daniel Payne Drive (which leads to I-65) to allow heavy trucks to use it; this project
was nearly complete as of May 2015.[14] Signs are now in place on Daniel Payne Drive (westbound)
informing truckers that access to I-22 is not allowed from Daniel Payne Drive.
ALDOT was to award contracts in August 2009 for the construction of the final segment of I-22,
including its large interchange with I-65 and US 31, with the construction to begin shortly afterward.
Funding delays postponed these into 2010, however. On March 19, 2010, President Barack Obama
signed the Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act (HIRE Act) into law, which included an
extension of federal highway funding through the end of 2010. This extension gave the ALDOT the
opportunity to proceed with its plans for the construction of final segment of I-22 in Alabama. The
opening of the bids for this project began on May 21, 2010. ALDOT announced on June 16, 2010, that
the project has been awarded to the company Archer Western Contractors for $168.6 million
(equivalent to $208 million in 2021[15]).[16] The project is the most expensive highway project ever
undertaken in Jefferson County, and it is the highest-priced contract awarded by the ALDOT as of
2010.[17]
On November 12, 2012, ALDOT's application for establishing I-22 was conditionally approved by the
American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) at a special
committee, pending for the Mississippi Department of Transportation (MDOT) to submit their own
application for I-22 and Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) approval. This therefore officially
established the existence of I-22.[18]
In April 2013, the first actual I-22 shields were deployed in Marion County, Alabama, immediately
east of the Mississippi state line. Such signs will extend east at least through Walker County into the
outskirts of Birmingham.[19] On August 21, 2014, ALDOT reported that I-22's interchange with I-65
would not be completed until October 2015.[20] The interchange's connections via exit 95 to I-65 and
the continuation under I-65 as exit 95C at US 31 remained under construction. In March 2016, the
interchange with I-65 and continuation to US 31 was still under construction. New lanes north and
southbound were opened on I-65 passing through the interchange and construction and painting
operations were carried out on the I-22 entrance and exit ramps.[21] The interchange to I-65 opened
to traffic on June 20, 2016, while the connector to US 31 remained under construction.[22]
Mississippi officials announced May 5, 2015, that the state officially began the process to designate its
portion as I-22. The two requirements to be able to apply for this designation were to upgrade the
route to Interstate standards and to connect to an existing Interstate within 25 years; this was
completed when I-269 was opened in December 2017. The I-65 interchange was opened in October
2015.[23] The route was officially signed in Mississippi in a ceremony on October 23, 2015.[24]

Interstate 222
Interstate 222 (I-222) is a future auxiliary Interstate Highway

that will be a connector between I-22 and the proposed I-422
near Birmingham, Alabama. There will be no exits other than its Future Interstate 222
terminuses. The highway has been proposed because an
interchange directly between I-22 and I-422 cannot be built Location Birmingham, Alabama
because of environmental issues. AASHTO approved the Length 2.26 mi (3.64 km)
designation on May 18, 2012.[27] Construction on this new route
has not been scheduled at this time.
Interstate 422
I-422 is a future northwestern bypass of Birmingham, connecting between I-20/I-59 from the
southwest and I-59 in the northeast. It will also be connected with I-22 via I-222 in Brookside, located
northwest of Birmingham. It was first proposed in May 2009 by US Representative Spencer Bachus;
on May 18, 2012, it was approved by AASHTO.[27][28]
