U.S. Route 278 (US 278) in the U.S. state of

United States Highway traversing the north-central portion of the state. The highway travels from the Alabama state line near Esom Hill to the South Carolina state line where it crosses the Savannah River in the Augusta metropolitan area
.

The route is

SR 1 in Cedartown, SR 8 from Lithia Springs to Decatur, SR 5 from Lithia Springs to Austell, and SR 10 from Atlanta to Avondale Estates, and again from Thomson to the South Carolina state line. It is entirely concurrent with SR 12 for 118 miles (190 km),[3] and is briefly concurrent with the southern terminus of SR 124 in Lithonia
.

Concurrencies of US 278 with US highways in Georgia include two long ones with its parent route US 78 from Lithia Springs to Druid Hills, and again from east of Thomson to the South Carolina state line. Others include US 19/US 41 in the vicinity of Georgia Tech in Atlanta, US 29 from Georgia Tech to Druid Hills, US 23 from the eastern part of Atlanta to Druid Hills, US 129/US 441 in the vicinity of Madison, US 1 from Augusta to the South Carolina state line, and US 25 from Augusta to the South Carolina state line.

It is also concurrent with I-20 from exit 75 in Lithonia until it reaches exit 90 in Covington in Newton County. US 278 largely travels parallel to I-20 from DeKalb County, near Atlanta, to McDuffie County.

Route description

Alabama through Lithia Springs

The highway starts at the

SR 1
, where SR 100 turns south and US 278/SR 6 turns north. That concurrency ends at an overpass with two connecting roads on the southwest and northeast corners.

The Silver Comet Trail, which travels in close proximity with US 278 from the Alabama state line flanks the highway directly along the south side for the second time east of the bridge over

SR 6 Bus. branches off to the southeast, while mainline US 278/SR 6 curves to the northeast onto Nathan Dean Parkway. Before the intersection of Calloway Drive, the Silver Comet Trail makes a sharp turn south. The eastern terminus of US 278 Bus./SR 6 Bus. is also the west end of the concurrency with SR 101. US 278/SR 6/SR 101 makes a slight turn to the southeast where it encounters the intersection with SR 113, and that route joins them as they all turns south. US 278/SR 6/SR 101/SR 113 leaves the city limits at a bridge over Braswell Road and a parallel railroad line. Just after the intersection with Fairview Road, the routes curve to the southeast. The concurrency travels over a bridge above the Silver Comet Trail again, just before the intersection with Atlanta Highway and Coots Lake Road, the former of which was once a segment of US 278/SR 6/SR 101/SR 113. Not long after this, the highway passes by Coots Lake, for which the latter road is named. SR 101/SR 113 leaves the concurrency a little further southeast, and after descending into a slight valley, US 278/SR 6 crosses the Polk–Paulding county line, where the street name is changed to Rockmart Highway. Along the way, it passes by few sites of any note other than Paulding Northwest Atlanta Airport
. Further east, a former segment on the opposite side called "Wayside Lane" begins, which serves the Lillian C. Poole Elementary School, and Wayside Baptist Church. Wayside Lane ends west of a power line right-of-way.

After the west end of Olivet Loop (another former segment) and at a break in the median, the route officially enters

SR 6 Spur. One last bridge over a railroad line south of Humphries Hill Road is crossed as C.H. James Parkway becomes Thornton Road. After the intersection with a dead end street named Center Street, US 278/SR 6 finally enters Lithia Springs
and curves to the southeast.

Metro Atlanta area

In Lithia Springs, SR 6 continues southeast towards College Park, while US 278 turns left onto US 78/SR 5/SR 8, and returns to Austell. Within "downtown" Austell, US 78/US 278/SR 5/SR 8 becomes Veterans Memorial Highway, makes a sharp right turn and runs along the south side of a railroad line. East of a bridge over Sweetwater Creek, SR 5 splits from US 78/US 278/SR 8 at an interchange with Markham Road and heads slightly northeast through the western parts of Smyrna to just west of Dobbins Air Reserve Base. US 78/US 278/SR 8 curves southeast of the tracks, but meets up with them again as it enters Mableton, near Church Street Southwest and Old Floyd Road, only to move away from the tracks again where the routes also encounter the northern terminus of SR 139 which continues into Floyd Road Southwest. Veterans Memorial Highway curves more towards the southeast until just before passing by Lindley Middle School, where it briefly leads back towards the east, only to curve southeast again in the vicinity of Mount Harmony Memorial Gardens.

Veterans Memorial Highway ends at the bridge over the

North Avenue (MARTA station)
, where North Avenue Northwest becomes North Avenue Northeast.

For one block between Juniper Street and Piedmont Avenue, US 29/US 78/US 278/SR 8 only travels eastbound along North Avenue Northeast. These two streets are

Moreland Avenue Northeast), and US 23 joins the concurrency as all four US routes and two state routes cross the DeKalb County
line.

South Ponce de Leon Avenue immediately splits off to the southeast, but US 23/US 29/US 78/US 278/SR 8/SR 10 only travels along the main Ponce de Leon Avenue along the northern edges of Springdale Park, Virgilee Park, and Brightwood Park, while South Ponce de Leon travels along the south side of these parks. This pattern ends at Lullwater and Fairview Roads, but is repeated again shortly afterwards at Shady Side Park and Dellwood Park, where the routes enter Druid Hills. On the opposite side, a North Ponce de Leon Avenue runs along the northern edge of Deepdene Park while US 23/US 29/US 78/SR 8 branches off to the northeast traveling along the south side of that park, awaiting the reunification of North Ponce de Leon Avenue with its parent street.

US 278/SR 10 branches off to the southeast onto East Lake Road Northeast, and the first notable feature is the St. Elias Antiochian Orthodox Church, across from a triangle with US 23/US 29/US 78/SR 8, which also has a

Avondale (MARTA station), the road curves away from both lines to the east. East of the Twin Oaks shopping center, the name of US 278/SR 10 changes from East College Avenue to North Avondale Road as it enters Avondale Estates
, while a local street named South Avondale Road branches off to run parallel to it. The road curves again this time to the southeast at Clarendon Avenue.

SR 10 leaves US 278 as it turns northeast onto Mountain Road, and

Kensington (MARTA station). The road briefly turns straight south after SR 154, but then turns southeast again crossing I-285 for the second time at exit 43. US 278/SR 12 continues through Lithonia, where it merges with and is concurrent with SR 124 until it reaches its southern terminus at I-20 at exit 75. From there, the three highways are concurrent through Conyers and Rockdale County to Covington in Newton County. In Covington, US 278/SR 12 splits from I-20 at exit 90 and parallels the interstate on its southern side in an easterly direction to south of Social Circle
, where the two highways cross I-20 at exit 101 and continue to parallel the interstate, now on its northern side.

The highway continues into

SR 17 Byp
).

East to South Carolina

Though SR 12 ends at US 78/SR 10, US 278 returns to a second concurrency with US 78/SR 10 and all three highways travel to the southeast as Augusta Highway. SR 17 Byp. travels to the south-southwest, as well. The three highways stairstep their way to the southeast, crossing over Sweetwater Creek and traveling near Boneville. Southwest of Boneville, they cross over ponds and streams named for the community. Just before the intersection with Wire Road and Ellington Airline Road, they curve to the east-northeast. Just to the west of Old Augusta Road, US 78/US 278/SR 10 curve to the east-southeast. They curve to the southeast and enter Dearing. In town, they curve to the east and intersect School Drive, which leads to Augusta Technical College's Adult Education Center and Dearing Elementary School. The concurrency curves to the northeast and then back to the east-southeast, before they cross over Boggy Gut Creek and enter Columbia County.[3]

Approximately 600 feet (180 m) after entering the county, US 78/US 278/SR 10 enter the western city limits of Harlem. Just to the southeast of West Boundary Street, they travel about two and a half blocks south of Harlem Middle School. In the main part of town, they intersect US 221/SR 47 (Louisville Street). At the southeastern edge of the city limits, the roadway becomes known as Gordon Highway, which is a major urban corridor farther to the east. The highways travel through Campania and Berzelia. A few thousand feet later, they curve to the northeast, crossing into Richmond County (and the city limits of Augusta), and begin paralleling the northern edge of Fort Eisenhower.[3]

US 78/US 278/SR 10 serve as the access point for Gordon Park Speedway and

Broad Street). Here, US 25 Bus. meets its southern terminus. Just after this interchange, the highways cross over the Savannah River into South Carolina. At the state line, SR 10 ends, while US 1/US 25/US 78/US 278, travels concurrent with SC 121. The concurrency curves to the northeast toward North Augusta, and ultimately to Hilton Head Island, South Carolina.[3]

National Highway System

The following portions of US 278 in Georgia, including portions of SR 12 from Avondale Estates to Augusta, 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 the Alabama state line to the eastern end of the SR 10 concurrency in Avondale Estates[7]
  • From the eastern end of the I-20 concurrency to the intersection with SR 36/SR 142 in Covington[7]
  • The brief concurrency with US 129/US 441/SR 24 in Madison[7]
  • The brief concurrency with SR 15 in Greensboro[8]
  • The entire Richmond County portion[9]

History

1920s

SR 12 was established at least as early as 1919 from SR 8 in Decatur to Augusta, with a south-southwestern turn to end in Waynesboro. The Covington–Madison segment traveled through Social Circle. SR 6 was established from SR 1 in Cedartown to SR 8 in Austell. SR 8 was established from SR 6 in Austell to SR 12 in Decatur. SR 21 was designated on SR 12 in Augusta.[10] By the end of September 1921, SR 6 was extended westward to the Alabama state line. SR 12's western terminus was shifted east-northeast to Ingleside, while its eastern terminus was truncated to end in Augusta.[10][11] By October 1926, US 78 was designated on SR 8 from Austell to Avondale and on SR 12 from Thomson to Augusta. US 29 was designated on SR 8 from Atlanta to Decatur. US 1 was designated on US 78/SR 10/SR 12 in Augusta. An unnumbered road was established on a more direct path between Covington and Madison. Two segments had a "completed hard surface": from the Cobb–Fulton county line to Avondale and a portion in the west-southwest part of Augusta.[11][12] By October 1929, US 19 was designated on US 29/US 78/SR 8/SR 12 from Atlanta to Decatur. Three segments were completed: a portion northwest of Covington, from southeast of Social Circle to west of Greensboro, and the entire Richmond County portion (except for the western end).[12][13]

1930s

By the middle of 1930, three segments were completed: the eastern part of the Polk County portion of the Cedartown–Dallas segment, the eastern part of the Cobb County portion of the Dallas–Austell segment, and from just west of the DeKalb–Rockdale county line to Covington.

SR 60. The Avondale–Conyers and Thomson–Augusta segments were completed.[15][16] In February 1932, US 19 was shifted off of SR 8 to the north; US 23 was designated on the Atlanta–Lawrenceville segment instead.[17][18] In April, the western half of the Cedartown–Rockmart segment was completed.[19][20] By the beginning of August, two segments were completed: from northwest of Crawfordville to just east of the Taliaferro–Warren county line and the entire McDuffie County portion (except for the extreme western end).[20][21] In August, the entire McDuffie County portion was completed.[21][22] Between November 1932 and May 1933, the Warren County portion of the Warrenton–Thomson segment was completed.[23][24] The next year, the Cedartown–Rockmart segment, a portion in the southeastern part of Dallas, and the Madison–Greensboro segment, were completed.[25][26] At the end of 1936, the Dallas–Austell segment was completed.[27][28] By April 1937, the Crawfordville–Warrenton segment was completed.[28][29] By July, the Greensboro–Union Point segment was completed.[29][30] By the end of 1937, US 1/US 78/SR 4/SR 10/SR 12 were indicated to have entered the main part of Augusta on Milledgeville Road; they intersected US 25/SR 121 (Savannah Road); all seven highways traveled on Twiggs Street and 7th Street to an intersection with SR 28 (Broad Street); US 1/US 78/SR 4/SR 10/SR 12/SR 28 traveled east-southeast on Broad Street to an intersection with 5th Street; and US 1/US 78/SR 4/SR 10/SR 12 traveled on 5th Street to the South Carolina state line.[31][32] The next year, the Polk County portion of the Rockmart–Dallas segment was completed.[32][33] By the middle of 1939, the Union Point–Crawfordville segment had a completed hard surface.[33][34]

1940s and 1950s

In 1940, a portion west-southwest of Dallas was completed.[35][36] By the beginning of 1941, two segments were completed: the western part of the Alabama–Cedartown segment and the Rockmart–Dallas segment.[36][37] Between the beginning of 1945 and November 1946, the entire segment of SR 6 from Alabama to Austell was hard surfaced.[38][39] Between June 1954 and June 1955, US 278 was designated on SR 6 from the Alabama state line to Austell, US 78 from Austell to the South Carolina state line, SR 8 from Austell to just east of Atlanta, and SR 12 from east-southeast of Avondale Estates to the South Carolina state line. By June 1955, Gordon Highway was established around the southwest side of Augusta and proposed to the 5th Street/Gwinnett Street intersection. It began on US 78/SR 10/SR 12 (with US 278 newly designated on it) west-southwest of Augusta to US 25/SR 121 south of the city. No numbered highways were indicated to be designated on it, so US 1/SR 4 remained on its previous path. It had an interchange with US 25/SR 21. US 1/US 78/SR 4/SR 10/SR 12 split off of the US 78/US 278/SR 10/SR 12 concurrency just north-northeast of Gwinnett Street, where US 278 reached its eastern terminus. It traveled north-northeast to Calhoun Street, east-southeast to 5th Street, and resumed its 5th Street path, albeit on a more southern starting point.[1][2] By the middle of 1957, Gordon Highway was completed around the southern and eastern sides of Augusta to 5th Street just north-northeast of Gwinnett Street in the city. US 1/US 25/US 78/US 278 was shifted onto the highway, with SR 4/SR 12 and possibly SR 10 remaining on Milledgeville Road, Twiggs Street, 7th Street, and Broad Street.[2][40]

1960s and 1970s

By June 1960, SR 10 was shifted off of SR 4 and onto Gordon Highway. SR 21 was extended onto the SR 4/SR 12 concurrency on Twiggs Street and 7th Street. SR 21 reached its northern terminus at Broad Street. US 25 was shifted off of Broad Street and onto Gordon Highway, which was extended to the South Carolina state line. Its former path was redesignated as part of US 25 Bus.

SR 6 Loop.[45][46]

1980s

In 1981, SR 21's northern terminus was truncated to

SR 6 Byp.[52][53] In 1988, a proposed northern rerouting of US 278/SR 6 was designated as a second iteration of SR 726.[53][54]

1990s

In 1990, US 278/SR 6 was shifted northeast from Van Wert on SR 113 and southeast on the proposed path of SR 748, with SR 101/SR 113 concurrent with them to Yorkville. US 278/SR 6/SR 120 was routed on the proposed path of SR 768. At this time, SR 726 was completed.[55][56] The next year, the path of US 278/SR 6 in Cedartown was shifted southward from the central part of the city to the southern part, onto the proposed path of SR 744 Spur. US 278/SR 6, as well as part of US 27/SR 1, was routed onto parts of the former path of SR 744. US 278/SR 6 in Rockmart was shifted northward onto a more direct path just north of the city. US 278/SR 6 in the Powder Springs area was shifted northward, onto the former path of SR 726.[56][57]
