The crossroads have always been an iconic image of the South.
They comprise that fork in the road where you choose East or
West, where decisions are made, and where mobility is incar-
nate.
The crossroads may be an old metaphor, but these days, in Ala-
bama, they are very real: The I-22 Corridor, a massive, brand-
new interstate highway, is almost complete, and with it comes a
new business lifeline for the Northwest section of one of the great
Southern states, Alabama. With its new highway, a huge swath
of businesses now have an easier way to transport goodsโEast,
West, and beyond.
โI see the I-22 Corridor opening up a section of northwest Ala-
bama thatโs never had major highway infrastructure before,โ says
Grady Batchelor, President of the Industrial Development Author-
ity of Winston County, Alabama, Inc.
Batchelor is definitely on to something. By the time the final two
miles of the highway are completed in 2010, the Corridor will link
Memphis, TN, with Birmingham, AL, a distance of 213 miles, run-
ning through Walker, Franklin, Winston, Lamar, Marion and Fay-
ette Counties. The Corridor parallels the current road, US High-
way 78.
The Corridor is no typical East-West highway. It is geared specifi-
cally to suit the logistics and transportation needs of many differ-
ent types of industries.
โThe I-22 Corridor will open the Northwest Alabama Counties
to the nationโs transportation system. These counties for too
long, have been isolated from the transportation system and
the Northwest Alabama area is a jewel waiting to be discovered!
We have a workforce available in the region that can support
any type or size industry, with a work ethic that will surpass any.
Buildings are available and the Industrial Parks have space ready
to custom build if preferred. The cost of living and operating in
Northwest Alabama is considerably lower than other regions in
the United States. The I-22 region, and the citizens in our alli-
ance area, pledge to support new industry as we continue to
support existing industry. The existing industry would certainly
testify to our support. We look forward to locating and sup-
porting any new industry to our region,โ says Lamar Countyโs,
Probate Judge Johnny Rogers.
Merchants, industrial manufacturers, and producers concerned
with transporting their products as efficiently as possible wonโt
have to worry about such issues with I-22. While Highway 78
often drops down to a two-lane road, for instance, much of
the Corridor is six lanes wide, dropping at its narrowest to four
lanes.
But itโs not just the road itself that is so attractive to the areaโs
economic development; itโs also the other roads the Corridor
leads to. By connecting Memphis and Birmingham, I-22 pro-
vides a speedy connection to several major highways, making
transport and logistics efficient, accessible, and easy. I-22โs
Eastern terminus, Memphis, is where many North-bound routes
like Interstate 55 lead to St. Louis, Indianapolis and, eventually,
Chicago. Interstate 40, with its connections to Texas and Okla-
homa to the West and Nashville to the East, also connects to
the Corridor in Memphis. The Western terminus of Birmingham,
meantime, leads to Interstate 20 (to Atlanta) and to Interstate 65
(also to Nashville).
These connections arenโt just lines on a mapโthey are trade
routes that provide the basis of a smooth and effectual industrial
operation. They are arteries that open up a better way for North-
west Alabama industries to streamline logistics and distribution.
โWith economic industrial development, one of the key factors
is always transportation and access to highway systems,โ says
David Knight, the Executive Director of the Walker County De-
velopment Authority. โThe development of Interstate 22 through
I went to the crossroad, mama, and I looked East and West
Oh yeah I went to the crossroad, and I looked East West

โThe development of Interstate 22
through Northwest Alabama signifi-
cantly increases our marketability for
the expansion of industrial and distri-
bution related projects. This interstate
highway opens a new corridor for
development and greatly improves
travel from Birmingham through Mis-
sissippi and on to Memphis.โ

โAs a member of the Berkshire Hathaway family and
worlds largest platform trailer manufacturer, Fontaine
Trailer Company is no stranger to the site selection pro-
cess. Since our original location in Alabama, the deci-
sion to locate not just one but three new facilities along
the I-22 Corridor was made easy due to the support and
commitment our projects received from the local com-
munities. We are excited about the success we have
experienced and look forward to many years of contin-
ued growth in the region.โ
John W. Craig,
President
Fontaine Trailer Company
โSeveral years ago Montgomery Distributing, Inc. chose
to locate in northwest Alabama near the I-22 Corridor.
Itโs a perfect location for us. We can distribute our ship-
ments to more locations within two days than any other
shipping point in the nation, both small package and
truck. The support we have received from the local com-
munity has been outstanding and being near Interstate
22 has allowed us to have a larger footprint for our dis-
tribution operations. We have already doubled the size
of our facility and operations and have plans in the very
near future to grow even larger. Northwest Alabama is
the right place for Montgomery Distributing, Inc.โ
Scott Montgomery
President
Montgomery Distributing, Inc.
โAs a 3rd party logistics provider for companies and
government entities across the country, having our
headquarters facility located in the I-22 region has prov-
en beneficial and weโre sure that benefit will continue
more so in the future. We have always been able to
identify and recruit individuals from the area who pos-
sess the qualifications, work ethic and integrity to grow
our company at a rapid pace. We are proud to be a part
of the region and look forward to thriving with the com-
munity in the years to come.โ
Jacob Norman
General Manager
C2 Freight Resources, Inc.
Northwest Alabama significantly increases our marketability for the ex-
pansion of industrial and distribution related projects. This interstate high-
way opens a new corridor for development and greatly improves travel
from Birmingham through Mississippi and on to Memphis.โ
Just what might those industries be? Many of the counties favorably im-
pacted by the I-22 Corridor are home to metal manufacturing sites, food
processing, manufactured home sites, mining, automotive companies
and many other diverse industries.
Batchelor cites the story of Exxel Outdoors, Inc. as a case study for what
the I-22 Corridor can do, not just for the region, but for the country. The
company, which makes sleeping bags, was recently touted by MSNBC as
a success story for actually bringing back jobs from China to its manufac-
turing site in Haleyville, AL, where production costs are actually cheaper
than overseas. By 2010, 90 percent of Exxelโs sleeping bags will be made
there, andโthanks in part to the Corridorโthey can be shipped anywhere
in the United States within three days. By contrast, shipping them from
China can take up to two months. โThey were able to bring back jobs be-
cause our workforce has been able to be more effective,โ Batchelor says.
โThey actually account for 30 percent of sleeping bag market in the US.โ
The Exxel story sums up the appeal of what Northwestern Alabama has
to offer industry and business. The area has long boasted a low cost of
living, ready-for-shovel facilities and industrial sites, low overhead, and a
willing, able workforce. With I-22 as its new artery, the region is prepared
to blossom, bolstering the established companies there with new ones
ready to take advantage of the existing infrastructure in combination with
the new logistics improvements the Corridor provides.
โWeโre pretty diversified,โ says Executive Director for Franklin County
Economic Development Authority, Mitch Mays, โand weโre looking to at-
tract new industry and build on what we already have. Weโve seen growth
with all of our existing industries and thatโs very important to us, but we
would like some new companies in the area.โ
New companies will find plenty to work with here. According to Scott
Hunt, an attorney with Marion County, Northwestern Alabama is chock-
full of incentives. โI believe Alabama is very competitive,โ he says, โand
offers unique packages to entice someone wanting to locate their busi-
ness or industry here.โ
โWe have quality workers with a solid educational base,โ he continues,
โand weโre able to train our workers to compete with anyone. We have
good labor relationships.โ
Hunt also notes the โexceptional industrial parks ready to be developed.
Weโre ready to provide a company with a site location thatโs beneficial to
them, without a tremendous amount of site preparation.โ
Of course, itโs I-22 that really puts the region over the edge. โIt gives us an
opportunity to work with companies that weโve never had an opportunity
to work with before,โ Mays explains. โItโs bringing Atlanta to Birmingham
to Memphis, and we see that as being a very important logistical advan-
tageโthey can reach 31 states in only one or two days, and thereโs not
many places in the country that can offer that.โ
