| Several lengths of old US Highway 280 remain in service through Shelby and Talladega Counties. In Shelby, the old route snakes back and forth across the current four-lane and is numbered, obviously enough, Shelby Co. 280 using the typical pentagon blue and gold signage. In Talladega quite a contiguous stretch of the former federal highway exists, signed as Talladega Co. Rd 511 thru Oak Grove and Sylacauga. 511 leaves the four-lane headed southeast out of Childersburg around mile marker 39 (or thirty-nine miles southeast of US 280's start in Birmingham near Homewood and US 31). |
