Route description
Columbus to Macon
SR 22 begins at the
Macon metropolitan area
As a divided highway, US 80/SR 22 travels by
Jones County to Comer
US 129/SR 11/SR 22 crosses over Walnut Creek and then enters
National Highway System
The following portions of SR 22 are part of the National Highway System, a system of routes determined to be the most important for the nation's economy, mobility, and defense:
- From its western terminus to its intersection with SR 96 in Geneva (completely concurrent with US 80 and SR 540)[3][4]
- From its interchange with I-475 in western Macon to its intersection with US 41 Bus./US 129/SR 11/SR 49 in southeastern Macon (completely concurrent with US 80)[5]
- From the eastern end of its concurrency with US 80 to the point where the concurrency with US 129/SR 11/SR 49 meet the northern city limits[5][4]
- From Gray to the eastern end of the SR 24 concurrency east of Milledgeville[4]
- The entire length of the SR 15 concurrency from Sparta to a point north of the city[4]
- The entire length of the US 78/SR 10 concurrency from a point southeast of the city to the northwestern part of the city.[4]
History
1920s to 1940s
SR 22 was established at least as early as 1919 from SR 1 in Columbus to Macon. At this time, SR 11 was established from Macon to
1950s to 1980s
Between April 1949 and August 1950, the path of US 80/SR 22 in Columbus was changed. They traveled east on 14th Street to US 27/SR 1/SR 103 (4th Avenue), turned right onto 4th Avenue and traveled to the south, turned left onto 13th Street and traveled to the east, turned right onto 13th Avenue and traveled to the south, and curved to the southeast, before resuming the former path. At this time, US 23 was designated on part of SR 22 in Macon.

State Route 22 Connector (SR 22 Conn.) was a connector route of SR 22 that existed partially in Macon. In 1967, the path of SR 22 in the Macon area was split in two, from east-southeast of Lizella to the southern part of Macon. The mainline route was projected and under construction on a more southern path from US 80 to SR 49. SR 22 Conn. followed the former path on US 80 from the western terminus to just east of the Interstate 475 (I-475) interchange.[28][29] In 1971, US 80 was shifted off of SR 22 Conn. and onto SR 22.[31][32] In 1981, SR 22 Conn. was decommissioned.[42][43]
The entire route was in Bibb County.
