Route description

Southeast of Swainsboro
At the intersection with US 1/SR 4 (South Main Street), US 1 Business/SR 4 Business end, and US 1/SR 4/SR 57 head southeast. About 2,000 feet (610 m) later is the northern terminus of

It passes through rural areas of the county, before entering McIntosh County. In Townsend, it intersects the northern terminus of SR 251 (Briardam Road). The route continues to the east for a few mile and curves to the southeast, until it meets its eastern terminus, an interchange with I-95 west of Eulonia. Here, the roadway continues as SR 99.[1]

The following portions of SR 57 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 in East Macon to the eastern end of the SR 540 concurrency, southwest of Gordon[2][3]
- The entire length of the US 1/SR 4 concurrency, from just northwest of Swainsboro to a point south-southeast of the city.[3]

State Route 57 Connector | |
|---|---|
| Location | Swainsboro |
| Length | 3.0 mi[4] (4.8 km) |
State Route 57 Connector (SR 57 Conn.) was a 3.0-mile-long (4.8 km) connector route that functioned more like a bypass route. Its route was nearly completely within the city limits of Swainsboro.
It traveled to the south and west of the main part of Swainsboro, connecting what is now
SR 4 Bus./SR 57 (South Main Street) with what is now US 80/SR 26/SR 56 (West Main Street) and the SR 57 mainline (Kight Road).[4]
