Georgia State Route 75
State Route 75 (SR 75) is a 33.4-mile-long (53.8 km) state highway that travels south-to-north through portions of White and Towns counties in the northern part of the U.S. state of Georgia. It connects Cleveland and the North Carolina state line, via Helen, Macedonia, and Hiawassee.
SR 75 begins at an intersection with US 129/SR 11 (North Main Street) in Cleveland in White County. This intersection also marks the southern terminus of SR 75 Alternate, which runs concurrent with US 129/SR 11 to the northwest. SR 75 heads north-northeast, past White County Park, to an intersection with the northern terminus of SR 384. About 1.2 miles (1.9 km) later, the road crosses over the Chattahoochee River. Then, SR 17 (Unicoi Turnpike) begins a concurrency with it to the northwest. Immediately after is another crossing of the Chattahoochee River. In Helen, a Germany-themed town, they cross over the river again. They begin to parallel the river to the northwest. Just outside town, they meet the northern terminus of SR 75 Alternate and enter the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest. They head north and north-northeast on a curving fashion through the North Georgia mountains and cross the Unicoi Gap into Towns County.
After crossing the Unicoi Gap, SR 17/SR 75 climbs down until it meets eastern terminus of SR 180. They then meet the eastern terminus of SR 180 and parallel the Hiawassee River for a while, before crossing over the river and heading to the north-northwest. They begin a concurrency with US 76/SR 2, just to the west of Macedonia. The four highways meet the eastern terminus of SR 288 and cross over a portion of Chatuge Lake. Then, they head northwest to the town of Hiawassee. In the northern part of town, SR 75 splits off to the northeast. It curves to the northwest, and circles back to the northwest, before leaving the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest, heads west, and curves to the north. It heads due north before a gradual curve to the north-northeast, just before meeting its northern terminus, the North Carolina state line. Here, the roadway continues as North Carolina Highway 175.
The only portion of SR 75 that 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, is the entire length of the US 76/SR 2 concurrency.
The original southern terminus was at Georgia State Route 254 near the Mossy Creek and Skitt Mountain Golf Courses. This segment ran northwest into US 129/SR 11 and multiplexed with those routes until it reached Helen Way. Today, the segment between SR 254 and US 129 is named "Old Highway 75 South."
State Route 75 Spur (SR 75 Spur) was a spur route of SR 75 that was unsigned on Nacoochee Road and Old Nacoochee Road just south-southeast of SR 75's intersection with US 129/SR 11/SR 75 Alt.
It began at an intersection with US 129/SR 11 (North Main Street) in the north-central part of the city of Cleveland. It traveled to the northeast. Just before an intersection with the southern terminus of Ash Street, it curved to the east-northeast. Just after an intersection with the northern terminus of Faulkner Street, it curved to the north-northeast. At an intersection with Woodman Hall Road, the name changed from Nacoochee Road to Old Nacoochee Road. It curved to the northwest and met its northern terminus, an intersection with SR 75 (Helen Highway).
Between 1951 and 1960, SR 75 Spur was established. It was decommissioned between 1983 and 1992.
