Warrenton bypass


U.S. Highway 278 Bypass
Location: Warrenton, Georgia
Length: 1.6 mi[9] (2.6 km)
Existed: 1989–present

Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found. U.S. Route 278 Bypass (US 278 Byp.) was established in 1989 as a southern bypass of downtown Warrenton. The entire length is also in concurrency with SR 12 Bypass (SR 12 Byp.). Banner signage along route mostly use "Truck" instead of "Bypass."[10]

The bypass route begins at mainline US 278 / SR 12, which turns from southeast to straight east as those routes head into historic downtown Warrenton. At first, it crosses a former Central of Georgia Railway line before encountering the intersection with State Route 16. After the intersection of Shoal Street, the route begins to curve east in front of the right-of-way of a former connecting ramp to SR 16. The road serves as the northern terminus of State Route 171 across from the Warren School Bus Shop, and then starts moving northeast, even moreso when it approaches State Route 80 (Quaker Road) which joins the bypass in a concurrency. US Truck Bypass 278 /SR Truck Bypass 12 ends at US 278 / SR 12, but SR 80 continues north towards Waynesboro and Shell Bluff.
