From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
State Route 381 was a north-south state route located in Paulding County in the northwestern part of the U.S. state of Georgia. From the route's southern terminus at U.S. 278/S.R. 6 in Dallas the route ran northeast to its northern terminus at S.R. 92 northeast of New Hope. The route was created in 1980, after previously being numbered as State Route 92 and State Route 92 Spur, and was turned back to local authorities in 1992.[1].
On April 4, 1977, Southern Airways Flight 242 attempted a landing on this stretch of highway near New Hope, Paulding County. The DC-9 crashed, killing the flight crew, 60 passengers, and 8 people on the ground. It also destroyed a gas station/grocery store and other structures.
