Bob Wallace Avenue and Sparkman Drive are major thoroughfares in Huntsville, Alabama that connect to make a horseshoe shape around the city. The two roads run through several residential neighborhoods and school zones including University of Alabama in Huntsville. On average, approximately 21,000 vehicles travel the two roads a day.
US-72 enters the city of Huntsville over Chapman Mountain from the north east and follows exit 21 on I-565 to intersect US-231/431 (Memorial Parkway) in north Huntsville where Sparkman Drive begins. The five lane road travels just to the south of a newly built Walmart Supercenter and travels west to intersect Blue Spring Road before entering into a densely populated residential area. The road then intersects Pulaski Pike before turning southwest, providing access to Highlands Elementary School and Ed White Middle School, just one of many schools located on the road.
