South of Hart Drive, Davis Highway diverges to become two one-way routes: the southbound is Dr. Martin Luther King Drive and later Alcaniz Street, while the northbound from Wright Street downtown until Hart Drive is signed North Davis Street.
Between Fairfield Drive and University Parkway, Davis is one of the city's major commercial strips. Near its intersection with Interstate 10 lies University Mall.
Much of Davis Highway was once called Ferry Pass Highway. Davis Highway, along with Davis Street, are named for B.A. Davis.
