I was on it today (4-3-08) and noticed they have opened another section recently. From Industrial Prkwy, in Jasper, to where the new section meets US 78 in Graysville. At that point it dumps you back onto US 78.
I may see this thing completed before I die yet.
I was on US 78 yesterday (3/20/10), and this portion has now been completed to Coalburg Rd in the Birmingham area about 2.5 miles short of reaching I-65. From that point, it is about 2 miles down to Daniel Payne Dr and then about 0.75 miles to I-65. It greatly improves the trip through Birmingham.
It goes the full length between suburban Memphis and suburban Birmingham. It is about 5 miles shy of Interstate 65 and they are working to make ready for it by at least 2010
Interstate 65 will take you from Mobile Alabama to Birmingham Alabama.
US Interstate highway 20 connects Atlanta to Birmingham Alabama.
Not all the way yet.... 5 traffic lights on a busy road connect the new highway to the I-20 interchange.
It is at the intersection of Interstate 65 and Interstate 59/20. It's on the way to Pensacola, Atlanta, Nashville, or Tupelo. It is in the center of the state, more or less and has many scenic and historical attractions.
