Route description
editSR 112 began at an intersection with US 31 in Bay Minette. It curved southeast towards Gateswood, an unincorporated community. Gateswood was where SR 112 met Baldwin County Route 64 (CR 64). Then, it intersected Baldwin CR 87. SR 112 ended at a bridge over the Perdido River crossing into Florida as Escambia CR 184 (formerly Florida State Road 184).[1]
History
editSR 112 was established in 1962.[2] In July 2004, a road exchange occurred: SR 181 extended south from US 90 to US 98 replacing part of Baldwin County route 27, and SR 112 was decommissioned and replaced by Baldwin County route 112.[3][4]
There was an older SR 112 that was renumbered from State Route 31 (SR 31), a highway from Cullman to Guntersville, in 1946 because the road crossed US 31. That SR 112 became part of an extended SR 69 in the 1957 renumbering.
Major intersections
editThe entire route was in Baldwin County.
