The city of Prichard is located on the north side of Mobile in Lower Alabama. Incorporated in 1925, the 25 square mile municipality mostly consists of residential streets, with an older business district centered around Wilson Avenue and Main Street. The Prichard city limits spread far to the north through rural areas along U.S. 45 to Kushla. Population numbers have steadily declined since 1960, with a loss of 25,000 residents by the 2010 census.
Interstate 65 angles northeast across Prichard from U.S. 45 (St. Stephens Road) to Interstate 165 and the Chickasaw city line. I-165 spurs southeast by the city center to the Alabama State Docks and Water Street in Mobile. U.S. 43 runs along the east side of Prichard, from U.S. 90 (Bay Bridge Road) north into Chickasaw. U.S. 45 extends northwest from Mobile through the height of Prichard en route to Citronelle in north Mobile County. U.S. 90 (Bay Bridge Road) straddles the Mobile and Prichard city line from its split with I-165 to the Cochrane-Africatown Bridge across the Mobile River.
Alabama 158 constitutes a four-lane expressway across northwest Prichard between County Road 31 (Newburn Road) and I-65 at Saraland. The route was extended west of U.S. 45 as part of the planned relocation of U.S. 98. Alabama 213 connects the Eight Mile community in Prichard with Saraland to the northeast along Shelton Beach Road. Alabama 217 (Lott Road) branches west from U.S. 45 at Eight Mile to northern reaches of Semmes and Georgetown.

Bay Bridge Road
Bay Bridge Road joins Craft Highway and I-165 with Telegraph Road (old U.S. 43) south to the Alabama State Docks, and the Cochrane-Africatown Bridge over the Mobile River. U.S. 90 and U.S. 98 Truck accompany the arterial east to Blakeley Island and U.S. 98 at Battleship Parkway.
|
|
| Bay Bridge Road begins at the northward turn of Craft Highway onto Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive near the Prichard and Mobile city line. The four lane arterial continues east directly into its merge with U.S. 90/98 Truck at Interstate 165. 07/17/07 |

| Bay Bridge Road eastbound at the Interstate 165 south & U.S. 90 westbound on-ramp. U.S. 90 splits with Interstate 165 north and joins Bay Bridge Road east to the Cochrane-Africatown Bridge; U.S. 98 Truck follows Bay Bridge Road east as well, but its routing southward appears to have been removed in favor of a northerly path along Interstate 165 to 65 with sign changes noted between 1999 and 2007.
The relocation of U.S. 90 from Government Street to the Bay Bridge Road loop and removal of Truck U.S. 90 was apparent in 1999, even though signage changes of the relocation of U.S. 90 were not changed in downtown Mobile until Fall of 2001. U.S. 43, which used to follow Telegraph Road south to Beauregard Street, was truncated to its grade separated intersection with Bay Bridge Road as well. 11/21/08, 07/17/07 |

Craft Highway
Craft Highway is an urban arterial linking U.S. 45 (St. Stephens Road) and the north end of Martin Luther King, Jr. Avenue in Mobile with Bay Bridge Road, and the I-165 frontage road system east of the Prichard city center. Craft Highway north from I-165 to Wilson Avenue at the Chickasaw city line was renamed Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive. Craft Highway resumes in name north from Wilson Avenue to U.S. 43 (Telegraph Road).
U.S. 43 is named for John Craft throughout the state of Alabama. Craft Highway south through Prichard and U.S. 45 in Mobile was the alignment of U.S. 43 in 1947. It was redesignated as U.S. 43 Alternate when U.S. 43 shifted east onto Telegraph Road.

Interstate 165 Frontage Roads
One-way frontage roads accompany both sides of the I-165 viaduct north from Bay Bridge Road (Exit 2) to Whistler Street (Exit 1A). The two to three lane roads were built in conjunction with the 1994-completed freeway to link I-165 with the various cross streets in the city. Texas style U-turn ramps join the roadways at Bay Bridge Road, by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive, Wilson Avenue and near Price Avenue.

Lovejoy Loop
Lovejoy Loop encircles the Prichard business district along Wilson Avenue. The loop formed part of one-way couplet for Alabama State Route 193, before Wilson Avenue was built in between. The two to three lane loop was restriped to two-way traffic by 2011.

|
| A 1940s one-piece four way signal once operated above the Lovejoy Loop East intersection with Prichard Avenue. The timing sequence blacked out the signal between color changes. A second 1940s era signal was used at the subsequent northbound intersection.
Thanks to Signalfan for information regarding the dates of these signals. 04/17/02 |

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive extends north from Craft Highway south and Bay Bridge Road east from central Prichard to Wilson Avenue at the Chickasaw city line. Now a local through road, MLK Drive was formerly a part of Craft Highway and the historic alignment of U.S. 43 north to Chickasaw and south to U.S. 43 at Toulminville in Mobile. Construction of Interstate 165 included a realignment of Bay Bridge Road to the south, shifting the through movement from Craft Highway atat Conception Street Road, to Craft Highway north to Bay Bridge Road east.

Former Alabama Route 194 - Meaher Avenue
Alabama State Route 194 along Meaher Avenue in 1961
Alabama State Route 194 followed Meaher Avenue from Wilson Avenue (former U.S. 43, U.S. 43 Alternate, and SR 193) to U.S. 43 (Telegraph Road) through central Prichard. The west end of the street was demolished with construction of Interstate 165, with the street redirected northward onto Bernard Street.

|
| Truck U.S. 90/98 trailblazers posted at the Paper Mill Road south intersection with Paper Mill Road Extension west and Chin Street south. U.S. 90 Truck was decommissioned in 1990 when U.S. 90 saw relocation from the Bankhead Tunnel onto the Bay Bridge Road loop. U.S. 98 Truck remains in use due to the hazardous cargo restriction on the U.S. 98 alignment under the Mobile River. 02/11/09 |
|

Telegraph Road
U.S. 43 follows Telegraph Road along the east side of Prichard, separating residential areas of Prichard with industrial areas along the parallel Norfolk Southern Railroad line. U.S. 43 ends at the grade separated intersection with U.S. 90 & 98 Truck (Bay Bridge Road) on Mobile city line. A road diet made by 2017 restriped Telegraph Road from four lanes to two through lanes with a continuous center turn lane.
Prior to Fall 2001, U.S. 43 extended south from Prichard into Mobile, following Telegraph Road to Conception Street Road and the intersection of Beauregard and Water Streets. The Telegraph Road viaduct over the Alabama State Docks Railroad was demolished at the time, leading to the truncation of U.S. 43 northward to U.S. 90 at Bay Bridge Road.

Wilson Avenue
Wilson Avenue constitutes the main route north from U.S. 45 (St. Stephens Road) through the Prichard business district to U.S. 43 (Telegraph Road) in Chickasaw. The urban arterial represents the original route of U.S. 43 from its former overlap with U.S. 45 to Craft Highway through Chickasaw. When U.S. 43 shifted east to Telegraph Road, Wilson Avenue was redesignated Alternate U.S. 43. SR 193 followed Wilson Avenue from at least 1952 to 1977 as well.
Wilson Avenue used to split into a one-way street couplet utilizing the Lovejoy Loop through the Prichard city center. Sometime after 1977, Wilson Avenue was constructed between the loop as a continuous road.

|
| The five-point intersection between Grover Avenue, old Bay Bridge Road, and Willjohn Street once held more prominence in the Prichard traffic scheme. When new Bay Bridge Road opened to the south, old Bay Bridge Road was severed from Telegraph Road. The connection to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive was also removed when Interstate 165 opened. This left the road for local use only, and its set of traffic lights with Grover and John Avenues obsolete. Rather than removing the signals, the city of Prichard instead permanently reset them into flash mode and they subsequently fell into disrepair.
Oddly enough, the signals were restored to operation just two weeks after we first visited the junction in late 2009... 12/17/09, 01/02/11 |

| Old Bay Bridge Road west at Grover Avenue (north-south) and Willjohn Street east to Meaher Avenue (former SR 194). Most of the adjacent housing is either abandoned or in a state of disrepair.
