Route description
editAs a standalone highway, SR 76 is two-lane highway that travels through rural areas of Shelby and Talladega counties. Approximately 4 miles (6.4 km) north of Childersburg, the highway intersects U.S. Route 231 (US 231) and US 280. SR 76 is then concurrent with US 231 and US 280 along a four-lane divided highway leading into Childersburg, where it diverts from the U.S. Highways. From Childersburg until the highway’s terminus at Winterboro, SR 76 is again routed along a two-lane highway.
