Is it quicker to just get on 331 and travel start down from Montgomery....
-or- stay on I65 and take the Greenville, Garland, Evergreen, or .... exit and cut across to another route??
Or go 231 to Troy, 87 to Elba, 189 to Kinston, left on 52 to AL 153. Turn right. This turns into FL83 and takes you right into DeFuniak where you can hit 331. Great route. Few in any cars or traffic. Nice scenery.

Well I'm all about scenry and staying awake especailly when I hit the last 4 hour lag of a 14 hour trip.... so we'll stick with the 331 since coming around Montgomery from the west. Guess hwy is open and no huge construction delays!? Plus so dang anxious to finally get there....it's hard to control the speed pedal :O) I'll just have to try to control myself.
I live in Montgomery and make the trip quite a few times a year. I used to always go straight 331 until florala. The last 6 or 7 times I have gone interstate 65 through andalusia then to florala. The 4 lane is alot safer for most of the journey and they are the same time getting down to the beach. There is even some 4 lane after the interstate.

It also depends on which end of the beach you're bound for. From Atlanta to Inlet Beach, we take 231 from Montgomery to the outskirts of Troy, then 167, 87 and 83 to 20, six miles east on 20 to 79 and south from there to 98 west. That way, we don't have to double back from 331.
