U.S. Route 31, Federal highway from Alabama to Michigan, United States
U.S. Route 31 extends across 1,280 miles through six states, connecting Spanish Fort in Alabama to Mackinaw City in Michigan.
The federal highway system incorporated Route 31 on November 11, 1926, replacing several existing state roads and sections of the Dixie Highway.
The road links multiple educational centers and industrial hubs, serving as a vital connection between the Deep South and the Great Lakes region.
The highway alternates between rural two-lane sections and urban multi-lane expressways, accommodating up to 168,770 vehicles daily near Indianapolis.
In Tennessee, Route 31 splits into two parallel branches, 31W and 31E, creating separate pathways through different regions of the state.
