Mike4AU 1,739 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Dub, will you take 459 then turn back on 280 or go to 65 to get to southside? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely backroads. Hwy 11 southbound to Ruffner Rd, then Oporto Madrid to Hwy 78 westbound into Southside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For years you could park under them for events downtown. Not now. They drop too much crap. They’re past due. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, nobody knows which route everybody else is going to take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike4AU 1,739 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Rush hour traffic in Bham, even on a good day, is pretty bad. For the next 14 months traffic is going to be beyond horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUBwins 10,075 Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 This summer we are heading back to pigeon forge from south Louisiana. We usually go 59, 459, 20 to get through Bham. Being that they are wanting everyone to go 459, I am not sure which would be best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just take 459 out of Bessemer/McCalla to bypass Bham and head toward 59. Should be good to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
