Editing Springfield, Tennessee (section)

==History==
US&nbsp;431 and US&nbsp;41 have had different routes through Springfield. US&nbsp;41 formerly had a more eastern route, now called Old Greenbrier Road. A portion of the old route was abandoned in the 1990s due to landscaping made during the construction of a railroad. The practical usage of the road was replaced by the 17th Avenue Connector. The old pavement is still visible from Bill Jones Industrial Drive. Beyond that, it ran more westernly through downtown Springfield, now called Batts Boulevard and Main Street. A portion of the old route north of downtown was removed due to the construction of a quarry. US&nbsp;41 was rerouted onto Memorial Boulevard, a 4 lane highway, around 1961 after its completion.

US&nbsp;431 followed a more eastern route prior to at least 2010 south of Springfield. This route had a different bridge crossing Carr Creek that has since been demolished. North of the bridge, it followed what is now called Main Street. It intersected US&nbsp;41 at the junction of what is now Main Street, A C Street, and 11th Avenue. It ran with US&nbsp;41 after this intersection, until its own rerouting on Memorial Boulevard in 1961. US&nbsp;431 was rerouted onto Tom Austin Highway around 1983.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://ngmdb.usgs.gov/topoview/viewer/#14/36.4933/-86.8887|title = Get Maps}}</ref>
