[edit] Southern Segment

The southern segment of the route begins at the Savannah River at the South Carolina state line in southeastern Augusta. The route travels northeast, reaching an interchange with Interstate 520. The route continues northeast through downtown Augusta, reaching an interchange with Interstate 20 north of downtown. Still travelling northeast, the route enters Columbia County. The route then crosses the Savannah River again, re-entering South Carolina.

[edit] Northern Segment

The northern segment cuts across the northeast corner of Rabun County, Georgia connecting North Carolina and South Carolina. It passes through the Pine Mountain community in eastern Rabun County. The southern end of this segment, at the bridge over the Chattooga River on the South Carolina state line, is a popular put-in and take-out point for kayakers and whitewater rafters.
