State Route 6 (also known as Camp Creek Parkway and Thornton Road) begins at the Georgia-Alabama state line southwest of Cedartown in Esom Hill and ends at I-85, exit 72, in College Park. State Route 6 is the state designation for U.S. 278 from the Alabama border to U.S. 78 in Douglas County. The eastern end of Camp Creek Parkway (S.R. 6) carries traffic to Interstate 85 North/South and the Atlanta Airport.
Recently, at the intersection of Camp Creek Parkway (S.R. 6) and I-285 in East Point, there has been a renaissance for south Fulton County: the opening of the Camp Creek MarketPlace. It was opened in late 2003, and the second portion is scheduled to open in spring or summer of 2006. It rivals even Lenox Square in size.
