Arkadelphia Road is the section of U. S. Highway 78 running from 8th Street West/Princeton Parkway at 2nd Court West northward to Finley Boulevard in Fountain Heights. It is named because it once connected Birmingham to the Cullman County community of Arkadelphia. A Blount County road connecting Jefferson County Highway 89 at Warrior-Jasper Road and Cullman County Highway 35 at Mulberry Fork is also named Arkadelphia Road.
Part of Arkadelphia Road in Birmingham once carried the No. 7 Wylam-Bush Hills streetcar line.
