State Route 249 (SR 249) is a 5.801adj=midNaNadj=mid route in the United States that serves as a connection between Alabama's SR 27 in Ozark with Fort Novosel.

Route description

SR 249 begins at the eastern gate of Fort Novosel southwest of Ozark in Dale County, heading northeast on four-lane undivided Andrews Avenue. The route runs along the border between Fort Novosel to the west and Ozark to the east, passing through wooded areas with some fields, homes, and businesses, intersecting CR 21 and CR 34. The road fully enters Ozark and runs through woodland with some residences, intersecting CR 101 before coming to a junction with US 231/SR 53 in a commercial area. Past this, SR 249 becomes a five-lane road with a center left-turn lane that passes more businesses before coming to its northern terminus at SR 27, where Andrews Avenue continues northeast as part of that route.[1] [2]
