State Route 9 (SR-9) is one of the longest state highways in the U.S. state of Alabama. From the Florida state line north to Montgomery, SR-9 is the unsigned partner route of U.S. Highway 331. As a signed route, the southern terminus of SR-9 is at its junction with U.S. Highway 231 and State Route 21 at Wetumpka, and the northern terminus of the route is at the Georgia state line east of Cedar Bluff, where the route becomes State Route 20.

Route description

US-331 enters Alabama from Florida near the border town of Florala. The route is one of several routes used to connect Alabama and points north with the Gulf of Mexico beaches in northwest Florida. From the state line to Montgomery, US-331 and SR-9 follow a northsouth orientation. North of Montgomery, SR-9 as a standalone route assumes a more northeast-southwest orientation, and passes through rural areas and small towns in the eastern part of the state.
