Can somebody answer kind of a off the wall question for me. I used to live in Bessemer. Does the Bessemer Super Highway still exist? And does the little Highway 150 from Hoover (I think) to Bessemer still exist? Just curious I guess.
I would post a link but I don't think I can here. Try going to Google Maps and search for Lakeshore Drive, Homewood, AL I bet you'll remember it when you see it. It runs in front of Samford University.
@EMSaction If I remember correctly Hwy 150 became like 14 or 15th Street once it came into Bessemer. Oddly enough I remember Midfield,Liscomb, Hueytown, and a little of Fairfield and Ensley as well. The last place I lived in the Bham area was in the Leeds-Trussville vicinity.
Wish trips on 20/59 really went that quickly. Ohhh, the frustration of getting behind a coal or log truck while going down some two lane back road. Though sometimes they're going faster than eveyone else.
wow and you didn't break the sound barrier??? cool :-)

Yes to both. And Lakeshore runs from Homewood all the way to 150 in Bessemer now.

I'm trying to picture Lakeshore in my mind, but just can't. Oddly enough, I moved to Austin TX and they have a Lakeshore Drive here.

I bought a police dash-cam mounting bracket from a company that sells them on Ebay. They're brand new and it wasn't that expensive.
