of the new highway, much curvier than the new route. Unlike the rest of old SR-24, this former stretch is impossible to traverse completely due to several bridges being cut along the stretch. Several county roads in Franklin County wind on both sides of the route, carrying the designations 'County Road -24'; with the prefix being sequenced from west to east from 'County Road 124' to 'County Road 724'. All of these county roads once carried the SR-24 name. Each of these county routes start at a junction with 'New 24' and end at a severed bridge or a second junction with the new highway - none of these county routes have a concurrency with the new highway. The new route includes a bypass around Red Bay, crossing the state line into Mississippi and continuing for about three miles as a four-lane divided highway known as Mississippi Highway 76 (MS 76) before ending at a stub/junction with Mississippi Highway 23 (MS 23). The divided highway may continue all the way to Tupelo or Interstate 22 in the future, but has had little construction past the stub for several years. Ground laying for the continuation is visible from the stub/turnaround, but is dilapidated and unusable. As of 2021, the entirety of Alabama State Route 24 in Alabama from Alabama State Route 67 west is four-lane; the whole route could be considered four-laned based on what you consider the eastern terminus of the route designation to be.
