The portion that would go through Alabama is essentially US 80.
It is probably the least traveled US highway in the entire state.
Would be a useless interstate for most Alabamians



(a) The point of it is to connect military installations that now have no easy wide route

(b) Highway 80 isn't widely used by individuals, but it is very used by industry. Especially timber and agriculture.

You ever travel US 80? It's sparsely traveled. I'm not saying zero people or industry uses it.
But just do an analysis of other highways around the state. I guarantee every other US route gets more traffic with the possible exception of portions of 431 through East central Alabama.
