Route description

edit

SR 123 begins at an intersection with SR 167 just south of Hartford. The roadway continues as Geneva CR 61.[2] From this point, the highway travels in a northerly direction where it intersects SR 52 in the central business district of Hartford.[3] From Hartford, SR 123 travels in a northeasterly direction before turning to the north upon entering Houston County and intersecting SR 103.[4] The highway continues through its intersection with US 84 (internally designated as SR 12) and continues in its northerly course into Dale County after crossing the Little Choctawhatchee River.[5] SR 123 continues along its northerly course in Dale County where it intersects SR 134 and travels concurrent with it for approximately 2.5 miles (4.0 km) through the town of Newton.[1] From the end of this concurrency through Ozark, SR 123 continues generally in this northern course in passing both Fort Novosel and Blackwell Field.[6] Upon leaving Ozark, the highway continues in a northwesterly course en route to Ariton where it then turns in a westerly direction where it meets its northern terminus with US 231.[7]
