A UPI report from Clanton Alabama describes how Interstate 65 changes along U.S. 31 bypassed the town, draining traffic from restaurants gas stations and peach stalls while prompting new markets and greater Birmingham access.

The piece notes peach growers, farmers and vendors seeking alternative sales like pickling and freezing, and locals hope the Red Mountain corridor will bring faster commutes and future growth.
