Interstate 65 in Alabama
Interstate  65 (I-65) meanders across 366 miles
(589  km) of the Alabama countryside linking six of the
state's 10 largest cities. The highway links together many
important roadways that make commerce inside and
outside of the state's boundaries possible. It starts at I-10
Interstate 65
near Mobile. The route passes through the major cities of
Montgomery, Birmingham, and Decatur before entering
Tennessee in the north near the town of Ardmore,
Alabama.

The entire Alabama portion of I-65 is dedicated as


Heroes Highway in honor of Central Intelligence Agency
officer Johnny Micheal Spann and all of the people who
died during the September 11 attacks.[2]

I-165 in Prichard
I-65 starts its northward journey in Mobile as a three-
Future I-85 southwest of
lane freeway at a directional Y interchange with I-10 not
far from the Gulf of Mexico. From there, it runs Montgomery
northeast, intersecting with I-165 in Prichard. At exit 13 Future I-685 / I-85 in
in Saraland, the Interstate transitions from three to two Montgomery
lanes. The highway next crosses the Mobile–Tensaw
I-459 in Hoover
River Delta at the General W.K. Wilson Jr. Bridge. En
route to Montgomery, it passes county seats Evergreen I-20 / I-59 in Birmingham
(Conecuh County) and Greenville (Butler County). In the
I-22 in Fultondale
case of a hurricane evacuation on Alabama's coast, I-65
can be converted to an evacuation route where all lanes Future I-422 in Morris
flow in the northbound direction from Mobile to
Montgomery. This process is known as contraflow. The I-565 / US 72 Alt. in
terrain on this stretch of road is slightly hilly, aside from Decatur

Location
As the I-65 approaches the Montgomery city limits, the Country United States
Hyundai Motor Company's automotive plant can be
found just off freeway. It can be accessed using the State Alabama
Pintlala–Hope Hull exit (exit 164). After entering the city Counties Mobile, Baldwin, Escambia,
limits, I-65 intersects U.S. Route  80 (US  80, exit  167; Conecuh, Butler, Lowndes,
which leads to Selma toward the west) where the Montgomery, Elmore, Autauga,
Interstate gains an additional lane for a total of three Chilton, Shelby, Jefferson, Blount,
lanes in each direction. Further on, it intersects the Cullman, Morgan, Limestone
southern terminus of I-85 and crosses the Alabama River
north of the city. At exit  181, which provide access to Highway system
Prattville and Wetumpka, I-65's lanes drop to two. Interstate Highway System

metropolitan area. Approximately halfway between
Interstate · US · State
Montgomery and Birmingham, it passes Clanton, the
county seat, where the water tower, visible from the ← SR 64 SR 65 →
road, is shaped and painted to resemble a huge peach.
Between exit 212 (State Route 145 (SR 145)) and exit 219
(County Road 42), I-65 was designated "War on Terror Memorial
Highway" in 2014.

I-65 junctions with US  31 (exit  238) in Alabaster, where the


Interstate carries three to four lanes until I-20/I-59. I-65
intersects I-459 in Hoover, then passes through the cities of
Vestavia Hills and Homewood, which often generate heavy traffic.
As the Interstate passes by downtown Birmingham, southbound
Billboard along I-65 north, north of
travelers have a view of the Vulcan statue atop Red Mountain. At
Prattville and just south of
the north edge of downtown, I-65 reaches the I-20/I-59
milemarker 191[3]
intersection (exit  261) with a crossover interchange, often called
"Malfunction Junction", through which the highway has five lanes,
continuing on northward with four.

North of Birmingham at mile  266, interchange ramps provide


access to parallel US  31. It is here that I-65 meets the eastern
terminus of I-22, which heads northwest to Memphis, Tennessee,
filling in a gap in the Interstate Highway System. After which, I-65
intersects Walker Chapel Road (exit 267) in Fultondale, where the
Interstate drops to three lanes. The Interstate then continues 98
miles (158 km) in the general direction of Huntsville, crossing the
Blount–Cullman county line (milemarker  291), where lanes
I-65 south approaching Birmingham transition from three to two, as well as passing the city of Cullman
and Malfunction Junction on the way. After entering the Decatur metropolitan area, in
southern Morgan County, the Interstate passes Decatur. The
highway connects the Huntsville–Decatur metropolitan area as it
crosses Wheeler Lake (Tennessee River) on a 2.6-mile (4.2 km) bridge. The Interstate emerges again

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstate_65_in_Alabama 2/12
4/1/23, 4:01 AM Interstate 65 in Alabama - Wikipedia

into the fringes of Decatur in an open area of seemingly "endless" cotton fields where it intersects,
inside Decatur, with SR  20, U.S. Route 72 Alternate (US  72 Alt.), and the spur route I-565 to
Huntsville.

Between Walkers Chapel Road in Fultondale and the Tennessee River in Decatur (Limestone County),
I-65 has been designated the "Ronald Reagan Memorial Highway". The sign designating the north
end of this portion of road cites Reagan's speech in Decatur on July  4, 1984. The Interstate then
continues, passing Athens, and merges with US 31. The two routes travel concurrently approximately
12 miles (19 km) to the Tennessee state line.

In the Birmingham–Hoover vicinity, a plan to widen the Interstate from North Birmingham to
Alabaster has been proposed.[4] The project is to widen the Interstate by adding an HOV lane and
keeping the original three lanes making it four lanes in each direction.[5] This is planned to stretch to
the Pelham area. From there, the Interstate will widen from two lanes each way to three lanes each
way into the Helena–Alabaster area.

Near the northern border of Alabama with Tennessee on


southbound I-65 is located the Alabama Welcome Center and rest
area. The unique feature of this rest area compared to others is the
large Saturn IB rocket erected on the site as a memorial to
Alabama's—and, in particular, Huntsville's—contribution to
NASA's space exploration.[6]

History
I-65 south Alabama Welcome
Center and rest area with the Saturn
The first section designed for the future Interstate Highway
IB rocket
System spanned from the Tennessee border to Athens at US 31. It
opened on November 15, 1958, and has a historical marker on the
Tennessee side of the border. It was converted to full Interstate
standards around 1970. The first section of Interstate in Alabama
opened to traffic was the eight-mile (13  km) stretch of I-65
between northern Jefferson County and Warrior on December 10,
1959.[7] A 26-mile (42  km) segment between Clanton and Calera
opened to traffic on March 23, 1961.[8] On April 1, 1961, a 26-mile
(42  km) section between north of Warrior and SR  69 near
Cullman opened to traffic.[9] On May 25, 1961, two segments of I-
65, a 14-mile (23  km) segment near Clanton and a six-mile I-65 between Birmingham and
(9.7  km) segment between Calera and Alabaster, were opened. [8] Decatur near milemarker 277
In Mobile, the 6.8-mile (10.9  km) section between US  90 and
US  45 opened on January  4, 1963.[10] Work on the Tennessee
River bridges in Morgan and Limestone counties began in April 1969, and the bridges were dedicated
and opened on November 21, 1973.[11]

While most of I-65 in Alabama was completed in the 1960s, the last segments to be completed were
some of the last segments to be completed on the entire Interstate Highway System. The 11.7-mile
(18.8  km) section between Alabaster and Hoover opened on May  20, 1981.[12] The first contacts for
the construction of the 12-mile (19  km) segment between US  43 north of Mobile and SR  225 in
Baldwin County, including the six-mile-long (9.7 km) General W.K. Wilson Jr. Bridge, were awarded
in 1967, and the section was opened on October 2, 1981.[13] At the time, this was the most expensive
highway project in the state's history, costing $137 million (equivalent to $351 million in 2021[14]).[13]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstate_65_in_Alabama 3/12
4/1/23, 4:01 AM Interstate 65 in Alabama - Wikipedia

The last section to be completed was a 14-mile (23  km) section


between Lewisberg and Warrior that opened on December  19,
1985, which replaced a four-lane section of US  31 that had been
designated as part of I-65 but did not meet Interstate Highway
standards.[15]

In 1997, at Georgiana (exit  114), honoring legendary country


musician and Alabama native Hank Williams, the Interstate was
designated as Hank Williams's Memorial "Lost Highway", after
one of his songs. This designation continues northward until
mile  179 north of Montgomery. From the state's capital, I-65 I-65 under construction in Escambia
doglegs northward, bypassing Prattville and Clanton before going County in 1963
through the Birmingham metropolitan area. From exits  242 to
290, this highway carries at least six lanes of traffic. A portion of
the Interstate running through Birmingham has been nicknamed "Malfunction Junction" for its
numerous wrecks. These accidents include two separate occasions of the support beams melting after
crashes by 18-wheelers and the numerous collisions that happen every year, resulting from the
junction with I-20 and I-59.

In 2004, following the death of former-President Ronald Reagan, a lengthy segment of I-65 from
Jefferson County to Limestone County was designated the Ronald Reagan Memorial Highway. The
sign designating the north end of the segment includes a statement from Reagan's speech at Point
Mallard Park in nearby Decatur on July 4, 1984.

Future
Just a few miles north of I-22 will be the new interchange (exit 274), which will be Corridor X-1, and
has been designated as Interstate 422. This loop route will connect I-65 with I-59 northeast of
Birmingham and I-20/I-59 southwest of Birmingham, and this will serve as an Interstate Highway

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstate_65_in_Alabama 4/12
4/1/23, 4:01 AM Interstate 65 in Alabama - Wikipedia

bypass of Birmingham, augmenting the existing I-459, which already provides the southern loop of
Birmingham. Construction of this interchange is still several years away, but right-of-way is in the
process of being acquired to build I-422.
