EspañolU.S. ROUTE 1 IN GEORGIA
(Redirected from State Route 4 (Georgia))
'U.S. Route 1 in Georgia' is also mostly signed as the state highway 'State Route 4'. The route crosses the St. Marys River from Florida near Waycross and crosses the Savannah River from Augusta, Georgia into North Augusta, South Carolina.
In Augusta, US 1 and SR 4 separate. SR 4 takes the older route to cross the Savannah River with U.S. Route 25 Business, while US 1 turns northeast with U.S. Route 78, U.S. Route 278, and State Route 10, which soon merge with U.S. Route 21 and State Route 121.
When the State Routes were first defined, SR 4 followed a route in northwestern Georgia, running from the Alabama state line east via Rome to Cartersville and north to Fairmount, where it met State Route 2 and State Route 53.[1][2][3] The north-south piece was soon replaced by an extension of State Route 61,[4] while the rest is now part of State Route 20 and State Route 293. The present SR 4 was then partly State Route 15, State Route 32, State Route 17 and State Route 24; it was renumbered to match Florida's State Road 4, which continued U.S. Highway 1 all the way to Miami.
