Alabama State Route 210
Route description
SR 210 forms a beltway around Dothan and is used by local traffic and motorists bound for other regions. It is a divided four-lane highway with a speed limit of 50 mph (80 km/h) for its entire circumference. The highway's mile markers are posted clockwise along the route and begins at the intersection with US 231/South Oates Street on the south side of the city. The three major U.S. routes that run through Dothan (84, 231, and 431) are all concurrent with the route at some point on the circle.
History
The road was constructed in the late 1950s and was made possible by former Alabama governor "Big Jim" Folsom who authorized the state expenditures. He directed that the road be named for Ross Clark, Folsom's brother-in-law, who had committed suicide in 1955.
Major intersections
The entire route is in Dothan, Houston County.
