Raise Your Hand If You’ve Gotten Stuck Behind a Tractor on Wire Road 🙋
Raise your hand if you’ve ever been stuck behind a tractor on Wire Road. 🙋 You can leave early, plan your drive perfectly, and somehow still end up crawling along at 15 miles per hour. It’s almost a rite of passage in Auburn.
Wire Road connects so much of Auburn’s life—farms, neighborhoods, Auburn University, and even a direct route to Jordan-Hare Stadium. But because it runs through areas with farmland and development, you never know what you’re going to get. One minute you’re cruising, the next you’re stuck behind a tractor with no shoulder to pass.
It’s frustrating in the moment, sure. But it’s also part of Auburn’s unique charm. We’re a city that blends small-town farm life with the energy of a major university. Where else can you see a line of cars behind a tractor one day and a sea of fans walking to a football game the next?
Locals all have their stories about Wire Road. Some say you just have to build in “tractor time” to your commute. Others joke that no matter how early you leave, the tractor will find you. It’s one of those little quirks that makes Auburn, Auburn.
