State Route 47 (SR 47) is a 43.063-mile-long (69.303 km) state highway in the southern part of the U.S. state of Alabama. The southern terminus of the highway is at its intersection with U.S. Route 84 (US 84) at Mexia in Monroe County, and the northern terminus of the highway is at its intersection with SR 10 at Awin in Wilcox County.
Although the route is signed "north–south", the initial trajectory of SR 47 is eastward at its southern terminus.
SR 47 begins at an intersection with US 84 in Mexia. It heads towards Monroeville. At Monroeville, the highway turns northward as it begins a 22-mile-long (35 km) concurrency with SR 21 heading towards Beatrice.
At Beatrice, SR 21 and SR 47 intersect SR 265 and turn eastward as they head towards Riley, where SR 21 turns northward and SR 47 continues eastward towards Midway. At Midway, the highway intersects SR 83 and turns northeastward as it leads to its northern terminus at Awin.
