Route description

State Route 185 begins at its intersection with US-31 south of Greenville.[2] From this point, the route continues in a northerly track where it intersects SR-10 just west of the Greenville central business district.[3] SR-185 continues north through the city and intersects both SR-245 and I-65 at Exit 130 prior to leaving the city limits.[3] From this point, the route continues in its northerly track and intersects SR-263 en route to Fort Deposit.[4] SR-185 then reorients in an easterly direction at Fort Deposit and continues its course where it again intersects I-65 (Exit 142) prior to reaching its northern terminus at US-31.[5]
