It is part of a three-state multistate route beginning in Florida and ending in South Carolina.

You can help by adding to it. (December 2013)SR\u00a0121 begins in rural Charlton County at the Florida state line near the southernmost point in the state. Here, the roadway continues as State Road 121. From the state line, it travels to the north, concurrent with SR\u00a023. This segment of the route is called the Okefenokee Parkway. After passing through St. George, it has a concurrency with US\u00a01\/US\u00a023\/US\u00a0301\/SR\u00a04\/SR\u00a015 in Folkston. Shortly afterwards, US\u00a0301\/SR\u00a023 split from the other routes, while US\u00a01\/US\u00a023\/SR\u00a04\/SR\u00a015\/SR\u00a0121 stay concurrent until Racepond, where US\u00a01\/US\u00a023\/SR\u00a04 continue to the northwest while SR\u00a015\/SR\u00a0121 branch off to the northeast. In Hoboken, the routes intersect with US\u00a082\/SR\u00a0520. In Blackshear is an intersection with US\u00a084\/SR\u00a038. North of this intersection, SR\u00a015 splits off to the northwest, while SR\u00a0121 heads to the northeast again. The road has a brief concurrency with SR\u00a0203 shortly afterwards. In Surrency, the road intersects US\u00a0341\/SR\u00a027. Later, SR\u00a0169, and then SR\u00a0144 form brief concurrencies with the road. A short time later, the route is reunited with SR\u00a023\/SR\u00a057 and becomes concurrent with one of these two routes once again. In Reidsville, the route intersects US\u00a0280\/SR\u00a030. In Cobbtown, SR\u00a057 splits off. Just south of Metter is an interchange with Interstate 16 (I-16), specifically Exit 104. Within Metter itself, SR\u00a023 splits off. North of Metter, US\u00a080\/SR\u00a026 intersect with the road. North of that junction, SR\u00a0121 begins a concurrency with US\u00a025\/SR\u00a067. SR\u00a023 joins the concurrency shortly afterward. In Millen, SR\u00a023\/SR\u00a067 split off. SR\u00a024 briefly joins the concurrency in Waynesboro. In Augusta, SR\u00a0121 travels concurrently with US\u00a01\/US\u00a025\/US\u00a078\/US\u00a0278\/SR\u00a010 along Gordon Highway and serves as a major road. At the South Carolina state line, SR\u00a010 end, while US\u00a01\/US\u00a025\/US\u00a078\/US\u00a0278\/SR\u00a0121 continue, concurrent with South Carolina Highway 121.[1]Woodpecker Trail[edit]In 2004, the Senate and Georgia House of Representatives of the state of Georgia passed legislation designating SR\u00a0121 as the Woodpecker Trail Highway from the Florida state line to the South Carolina state line and was signed into law by Governor Sonny Perdue on May 17, 2004. On September 19, 2005, Governor Perdue and others officially dedicated the Woodpecker Trail Highway in Augusta. A newly designed Woodpecker Trail logo was imprinted onto highway signs which have been placed along the trail at key highway junction points.[2] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4The origin of the trail’s name dates back to the 1920s when it was listed by AAA, and, in the 1940s, highway signs using Walter Lantz’s Woody Woodpecker character marked the highway but eventually fell out of use.[2] Of course, it was in use before then, maybe as early as 1915 by Native Americans, horse-drawn buggies, and the first horseless carriages.While the highway continues into Florida and South Carolina as State Road 121, efforts to continue the Woodpecker Trail designation and signage in those states have been unsuccessful.[2]Major intersections[edit]Special routes[edit]Charlton County spur route[edit]State Route\u00a0121 Spur (SR\u00a0121 Spur) was a spur route of SR\u00a0121 that existed in the central part of Charlton County, on the eastern side of the Okefenokee Swamp. In 1952, an unnumbered road was established from Camp Cornelia east to SR\u00a023 south-southwest of Folkston.[7][8] Between June 1960 and June 1963, SR\u00a0121 was extended on SR\u00a023.[9][10] In 1976, this road was designated as SR\u00a0121 Spur.[3][4] In 1993, the spur route was decommissioned.[5][6]The entire route was in Charlton County.Waynesboro bypass route[edit]This section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it. (December 2013)State Route\u00a0121 Bypass (SR\u00a0121 Byp.) is a bypass around most of Waynesboro. It is concurrent with U.S. Route\u00a025 Bypass (US\u00a025 Byp.) for its entire length.The entire route is in Burke County.See also[edit]References[edit]^ a b c d Google (August 19, 2012). “Overview map of SR 21” (Map).
