Fieldstown Road, which is also designated Jefferson County Road 118, is a 4.2 mile, predominantly east-west road in Gardendale that connects Decatur Highway (U.S. Highway 31) in the east and Coalburg Road in the west. There is significant commercial development along the road between its interchange with Interstate 65 and Decatur Highway. The majority of the road is in the Gardendale city limits, but a few portions are still in unincorporated Jefferson County.
History
Fieldstown Road was originally a two lane road that connected Gardendale to the Fieldstown community several miles to the west of Gardendale. When I-65 came through Gardendale in the early 1980's, the section of the road from I-65 to Decatur Highway was widened to five lanes and was partially rerouted to provide better traffic flow.
Route
The east end of Fieldstown Road is at Pecan Avenue, which is adjacent to Decatur Highway (Gardendale). The road travels west, turning to the southwest as it meets I-65. It then turns south briefly before returning to a mostly western heading. The road finally turns south as it meets New Found Road, ending at Coalburg Road.
