Route description
editEntering Alabama in eastern Geneva County, SR 27 is primarily a two-lane highway. It serves as a connector from the Gulf coast beaches along the Florida Panhandle to major highways such as US 84 and US 231. Between the cities of Geneva and Enterprise, the highway's orientation is generally north-to-south. Upon leaving Enterprise, the highway assumes a northeastward trajectory as it leads into Dale County. East of Ozark, the highway, while still signed as “north” and “south”, assumes an east–west orientation until its terminus at Abbeville, at SR 10.
