AL 114


State Route 114 (SR-114) is a route in the southwestern portion of Alabama. The western terminus of the route is at its junction with State Route 10 near Lavaca, an unincorporated town approximately 11 miles (18 km) east of Butler. The eastern terminus of the route is at its junction with State Route 69 at Myrtlewood.

State Route 114 travels northeastwardly through rural Choctaw County and Marengo County. The route passes through sections of Alabama’s Black Belt, one of the poorest regions of the state. It serves as a leg of the route between Butler and Linden and passes primarily through rural areas and unincorporated communities. The only incorporated towns the route traverses are Pennington and Myrtlewood.

The route was designated in 1963 along the former route of Choctaw County Road 32.

Until 2000, the old Naheola Bridge on Alabama 114 near the unincorporated town of Naheola was one of only two bridges in the world where rail and road traffic shared the same running surface. Traffic signals were mounted at either end of the bridge, controlled from the lift bridge operator stationed on top of the lift, that signaled to cars when it was safe to cross.

The bridge was closed to road traffic in 2000, and in 2001 the Highway Department constructed a new bridge for Alabama 114 parallel to the old Naheola bridge.
