Route description
SR 41 is a continuation of Florida State Road 87, leading into Alabama from the Gulf coast beaches and Milton. SR 41 begins its route along a two-lane road south of the small town of Dixonville. North of Dixonville, SR 41 intersects U.S. Route 29 (US 29) south of Brewton. Northbound SR 41 and southbound US 29 share a brief wrong-way concurrency as they head into Brewton. This concurrency ends when the two highways intersect US 31 in Brewton, and US 29 joins US 31.
Just after entering Conecuh County, SR 41 intersects I-65, offering motorists a direct route from the Florida Panhandle to Montgomery and Birmingham. SR 41 continues its northward trajectory as it enters Monroe County.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Alabama State Route 41” as highway in Alabama. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as highway in Alabama. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 1, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q873235. Authority coordinates are 32.340, -86.997. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank.
A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
