Florida to Michigan on 65

Is there a way around Birmingham Al? South bound on 65 thru Birmingham Al is very rough! Is north bound as bad? Does anyone know a way around that rough pavement?

I don't think there is a good way around Birmingham in Alabama. Depending on where in Florida you're coming from, I-75 through Atlanta might be an alternative. Avoid Birmingham at rush hour, there is a lot of construction downtown and it is a parking lot almost every day. I was through there about a month ago, and there was a lot of lane shifts and narrow lanes in addition to the rough pavement.

I live in Bham. 65 is getting completely redone in downtown, so they have held off on any repairs on the road for a long time. Traffic is slow and there are several lane swaps and it's ruff roads for sure. After you get thru the city of Bham the roads get much better. They repaved a lot of 65 leading up to the city. But N and S are about the same.
