Route description
SR 125 begins at US 84/SR 87 (also unsigned SR 12) in Elba, northeast of the downtown area of the city. Heading northeast, SR 125 travels through Victoria and intersects SR 167. It continues to the northeast and then reaches its northern terminus, an intersection with US 231 (internally designated as SR 53) south of Brundidge.[2]
SR 125 begins at a channelized intersection with US 84 and SR 87 on the northeastern edge of Elba, continuing the trajectory of the AL 203 loop. From its southern terminus the highway travels northeast as a two-lane undivided road passing through alternating pockets of rural farmland and dense southern pine woodlands. The route maintains a relatively straight geometric alignment across northern Coffee County, serving small rural residences and agricultural tracts before passing directly through the unincorporated community of Victoria. Upon crossing the county line into southern Pike County, the highway maintains its northeasterly course through rolling, topographically varied terrain. It intersects minor county corridors, providing critical regional farm-to-market connectivity for nearby agricultural facilities. As it nears its northern terminus, SR 125 passes just west of the Tarentum community before concluding at a standard at-grade intersection with the four-lane divided corridor of US 231 (SR 53) roughly four miles south of the city limits of Brundidge.
