Route Description
State Route 119 begins as a two-lane route, passing through Montevallo, the home of the University of Montevallo. Going northward, SR-119 travels through Alabaster, where it follows U.S. Highway 31 to Pelham, where it branches off into its own route once again in the Oak Mountain State Park area, then to the eastern area of Hoover, and then crosses U.S. Highway 280 before reaching its northern terminus at the junction with US-78 in Leeds.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“no arranged terror: no forcing of image, plan,
or thought:
no propaganda, no humbling of reality to precept:
terror pervades but is not arranged, all possibilities
of escape open: no route shut,”
—Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)
“The next Augustan age will dawn on the other side of the Atlantic. There will, perhaps, be a Thucydides at Boston, a Xenophon at New York, and, in time, a Virgil at Mexico, and a Newton at Peru. At last, some curious traveller from Lima will visit England and give a description of the ruins of St Paul’s, like the editions of Balbec and Palmyra.”
—Horace Walpole (1717–1797)
