U.S. Route 84 in Georgia
U.S. Route 84 (US 84) is a 259-mile-long (417 km) U.S. Highway in the U.S. state of Georgia, is also signed as State Route 38 for its entire length in Georgia. After entering Georgia from Alabama west-northwest of Jakin, the highway travels through the southern portion of the state, meeting its east end at Interstate 95 (I-95) east of Midway. US 84 through Georgia is also known as the Wiregrass Georgia Parkway.
After entering the state from Alabama, US 84/SR 38 travels east through Donalsonville to Bainbridge. The highways travel around the city to the south on a freeway bypass, cosigned with US 27/SR 1, where it has multiple exits such as with SR-97, US-84 BYP, and SR-253. The route continues east through Cairo to Thomasville, where it bypasses downtown to the north and east, concurrent with US 319 and SR 35, then US 19/SR 3/SR 300. The highway then continues east to Quitman, where it becomes concurrent with US 221/SR 76/SR 333 to the east, past its interchange with Interstate 75 (I-75), to Valdosta. In Valdosta, US 221 departs, and US 84/SR 38 continues east to Waycross, where it is briefly concurrent with US 1, US 23, US 82, SR 4, and SR 520. US 84/SR 38 continues east from Waycross, traveling through Blackshear before arriving in Jesup. In Jesup, the highway becomes concurrent with US 25, US 301, and SR 23 east to Ludowici. In Ludowici, US 25, US 301, and SR 23 depart to the northwest, and US 84/SR 38 continues east to Hinesville. In Hinesville, the highway becomes concurrent with SR 196, and takes a drastic turn to the east. A short distance later, SR 196 departs, and US 84/SR 38 continues east to exit 76 on I-95 east of Midway. Here, the roadway continues as Islands Highway.
The entire length of US 84 in Georgia is part of the National Highway System, a system of routes determined to be the most important for the nation's economy, mobility, and defense.
Formerly, US 84 met its eastern terminus at US 17/SR 25 west of Brunswick, while US 82 followed the present alignment of US 84 to Midway. However, with the realignment of highways near Waycross, the terminus of the two highways were swapped. In addition, a segment of the highway between Boston and Quitman was relocated to a more northerly routing in 1966, with the former routing being renumbered as State Route 364. SR 364 was decommissioned in 1982.
U.S. Route 84 Business (US 84 Bus.) in Bainbridge follows the former routing of US 84/SR 38 through downtown, traveling west to east from both ends of the mainline route around the city. It is entirely concurrent with SR 38 Bus. The business route is known as Shotwell Street for its entire length.
US 84 Bus. and SR 38 Bus. begin at an interchange with US 27/US 84/SR 1/SR 38 in the central part of the city. At this interchange, the road continues as South Old Quincy Road, which is former SR 97 Conn. There is also Boat Basin Circle, which is the main entrance to Earle May Recreation Area. They travel to the east and cross over some railroad tracks of CSX. They intersect South Bruton Street, which leads to Cheney Griffin Park. At West Street, SR 97/SR 309 join the concurrency. One block later, at Broad Street, SR 97/SR 309 depart the concurrency, and US 27 Bus./SR 1 Bus. join. On the southeastern corner of the intersection with Monroe Street lies the Gilbert H. Gragg Library. At Scott Street, US 27 Bus./SR 1 Bus. leave the concurrency. Between North Thornatiska Drive and South Wheat Avenue, they pass Jones Wheat Elementary School. Between South Wheat Avenue and Gordon Avenue, they pass Memorial Hospital and Manor. Just to the east of Gordon Avenue, the highways curve to the east-southeast before meeting their eastern terminus, an intersection with US 84/SR 38 (Thomasville Road).
The entire route is in Bainbridge, Decatur County.
State Route 38 Spur (SR 38 Spur) is a short west–east spur route in Cairo connecting SR 93/SR 111 in downtown with the US 84/SR 38 mainline in the eastern part of the city.
