'''State Route 49''' ('''SR 49''') is a {{convert|122.8|mi|km|adj=mid|-long}} state highway that travels southwest-to-northeast through portions of Terrell, Sumter, Macon, Peach, Houston, Bibb, Jones, and Baldwin counties, mainly in the central part of the U.S. state of Georgia. The highway connects SR 45 north of Dawson to SR 22/SR 24 in Milledgeville.
The segment from Fort Valley to Byron is part of the Fall Line Freeway, a highway that connects Columbus to Augusta. It may also be incorporated into the proposed eastern extension of Interstate 14 (I-14), which is currently entirely in Central Texas, and may be extended into Augusta.
==Route description== SR 49 begins at an intersection with SR 45 (Plains Highway) at a point about {{convert|5.6|mi|km}} north of Dawson, in Terrell County. It heads to the northeast and crosses over Kinchafoonee Creek into Sumter County. The highway continues to the northeast. It passes through rural areas of the county and crosses an intersection with SR 308, called Croxton Crossroads. It curves to the north past Koinonia Community Lake. The route then curves back to the north-northeast and intersects US 280/SR 27 southwest of Americus. The three highways run concurrently to the northeast. Approximately {{convert|4000|ft|m}} later, US 19/SR 3 (South Martin Luther King Boulevard) join the concurrency. Immediately, the five routes enter Americus. About {{convert|3000|ft|m}} later, US 19/SR 3 split off to the northeast on North Martin Luther King Boulevard, while US 280/SR 27/SR 49 turn to the east on West Lamar Street. On the east side of town, SR 49 departs to the north on Tripp Street and meets the westbound lanes of US 280/SR 27/SR 49 (Forsyth Street), before heading northeast again. It passes Argo Lake and the Jimmy Carter Regional Airport on its way out of town. Before leaving the county, the highway passes John James Lake, Tharpe Lake, and Charles Reeves Lake. Then, it curves to the north and meets the northern terminus of SR 195 (Bailey Avenue). About {{convert|2000|ft|m}} farther to the north, it begins to run along the Sumter–Macon county line and passes through the western part of Andersonville National Historic Site and east of the town of Andersonville. Then, it crosses into Macon County proper and resumes its northeastern routing, passing through the extreme northern part of the historic site. The route passes through Clearview, before approaching Oglethorpe. Just southwest of town, is an intersection with SR 26 and SR 49 Truck/SR 128. At this intersection, SR 49/SR 49 Truck/SR 128 head northeast into town concurrently. They meet the southern terminus of SR 128 Bypass (West Bypass) and pass Oglethorpe Cemetery.<!--It is unknown where SR 49 Truck actually travels through Oglethorpe or Montezuma.--> At Sumter Street, they intersect SR 90; SR 90/SR 128 head to the northwest, and SR 49/SR 90 curve to the east. They cross over the Flint River and enter Montezuma. At Dooly Street, the two routes divide, with SR 90 heading south-southwest and SR 49 heading to the north-northeast. SR 49 passes through rural areas of the county and has a concurrency with SR 127 that ends in Marshallville. A little farther to the north-northeast, the highway runs along the Macon–Peach county line before entering Peach County proper. It continues to the northeast, toward Fort Valley. Just before entering town, it meets the western terminus of University Boulevard, which leads to Fort Valley State University and serves as a southern bypass route of town. In Fort Valley, the highway passes Oak Lawn Cemetery, before entering the main part of town. There, it intersects US 341/SR 7/SR 96 (Oakland Heights Parkway). In the northeastern part of town, SR 49 passes Peach Regional Medical Center, before it leaves town. Then, it meets the eastern terminus of SR 49 Connector and SR 540 (Buddy Reddick Memorial Parkway / Fall Line Freeway). Here, SR 540 joins SR 49 in a concurrency. From this intersection, the next {{convert|9.8|mi|km}} of road is part of the Fall Line Freeway, an expressway that connects Columbus and Augusta. Northeast of Fort Valley, SR 49/SR 540 passes the Pine Needles Country Club. In Powersville, the two highways meet the western terminus of SR 247 Connector (Centerville Road). In Byron, it meets the eastern terminus of SR 42, before having an interchange with Interstate 75 (I-75), where SR 540 and the Fall Line Freeway depart to the north. The highway continues to the northeast and travels along the Peach–Houston county line. Almost immediately after its county line section, it intersects US 41/SR 11. The three highways head concurrently to the northeast on Industrial Highway. Then, they enter Houston County, where they pass Vinsons Lake. Slightly to the northeast, they cross over Echeconnee Creek into Bibb County. The concurrent routes pass northwest of Middle Georgia Regional Airport, before curving to the north. Approximately {{convert|1.5|mi|km}} south of Macon, US 129/SR 247 (Hawkinsville Road) join the concurrency. The five highways cross over the Tobesofkee and Rocky creeks and enter Macon. Just over {{convert|1000|ft|m}} into the city, is a major intersection. US 41/SR 247 (Pio Nono Avenue) head northwest to the left, Houston Avenue heads north straight ahead, and US 129/SR 11/SR 49 (Broadway) head north-northeast to the right, concurrent with US 41 Business. The four highways continue to an intersection with US 80/SR 22 (Eisenhower Parkway), which join the concurrency. They head northeast into the main part of the city. At Walnut Street, US 41 Business/SR 22/SR 49 head northwest, while US 80/US 129/SR 11 continue to the northeast. At 2nd Street, SR 22 splits off to the northeast, while US 41 Business/SR 49 continue to the northwest and intersect SR 19. Here, US 41 Business travels to the southwest and west concurrent with SR 19, while SR 19/SR 49 head northeast. Two blocks later, they intersect US 23/US 129/SR 11/SR 87. At this intersection, US 23/US 129/SR 11/SR 19/SR 49 head northeast and cross over the Ocmulgee River. On the northern side of the river is an interchange with I-16/SR 540 (Fall Line Freeway). Immediately afterward, US 23/SR 19 split off to the east onto Emery Highway, while US 129/SR 11/SR 49 continue to the northeast. Approximately {{convert|1000|ft|m}} later, SR 22 rejoins the concurrency. The four highways continue northeast until SR 49 departs to the east on Shurling Drive. It cuts across a corner of Jones County before re-entering Bibb County. The highway passes Bowden Golf Course and enters Jones County again. It passes through rural areas of the county and crosses an intersection with SR 18, called Greenberry Crossroads. The highway continues to the northeast and enters Baldwin County. It runs along the Milledgeville–Hardwick line, where it intersects US 441/SR 29 (West Bypass Road). Then, the highway curves to the northwest, crossing over Fishing Creek into Milledgeville city proper. SR 49 passes Central City Park and then intersects US 441 Business/SR 29 Bus. (Clark Street) on the southwestern corner of Georgia College & State University. A few blocks farther to the east-northeast, it meets its northern terminus, an intersection with SR 22/SR 24 (North Elbert Street/East Hancock Street). This intersection also marks the former northern terminus of SR 112, which used South Elbert Street.<ref name="Google"/>

==Future== {{Main|Fall Line Freeway}}
{{multiple issues|section=yes| {{Unreferenced section|date=August 2013}} {{Expand section|date=September 2012}} }} SR 49, between its intersection with SR 49 Conn. northeast of Fort Valley and I-75 in Byron is part of the Fall Line Freeway, an expressway that connects Columbus and Augusta.

'''State Route 49 Connector''' ('''SR 49 Connector''') is a {{convert|4.7|mi|km|adj=mid|-long}} connector route that exists completely within the southwestern part of Peach County, in the central part of the U.S. state of Georgia. The road functions more like a bypass route around the northwest parts of Fort Valley. It connects SR 96/SR 540 west of the city with the SR 49 mainline and SR 540 northeast of the town. The entire length of this highway, like the mainline, is also concurrent with SR 540 and part of the Fall Line Freeway.
SR 49 Connector begins at an intersection with SR 96/SR 540 (Troutman Avenue), west of Fort Valley. It and SR 540 head northeast to an intersection with US 341/SR 7 (Hartley Road), northwest of the city. The highways curve to a due-east routing and curve to the southeast just before they meet SR 49 Conn.'s eastern terminus, an intersection with the SR 49 mainline (North Camellia Boulevard), northeast of the city. Here, SR 540 begins a concurrency with SR 49.<ref name="Google2"/>
All of SR 49 Connector, from US 341/SR 7/SR 42 to the SR 49 mainline and SR 540, is included as part of the National Highway System, a system of roadways important to the nation's economy, defense, and mobility.<ref name="NHS Georgia"/>
