Route description

SR 48 begins at the Alabama state line, where the roadway continues as Alabama State Route 117. This is located northwest of Cloudland. SR 48 travels southeast, into Cloudland, where it has an intersection with the southern terminus of SR 157. SR 48 then curves to the town of Menlo, where it intersects SR 337 (7th Avenue). SR 48 continues east, through rural areas of the county, to Summerville, where it meets its eastern terminus, an intersection with US 27/SR 1 in downtown.[1]

While the route is short, SR 48 is a somewhat important route in the area. Between Menlo and Summerville, the route sees an Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT) over 5,000 vehicles.

gollark: As can be seen, I have demolished all objections and thus am right.
gollark: This can be shown to be valid:
gollark: I CLEARLY said `= (maybe)`.
gollark: However, apiohax = P = (maybe) NP = 0 (mod N). Therefore, as rings may be noncommutative, it is the case that the left ideal, 7, is an eigenvalue of the matrix expansion of the general bee formula. By basic applications of previously proven lemmas, it can be shown that this makes apiohax isomorphic to the group (ℤ, +). The implications are obvious.
