Route Description
The route initially runs west from its southeastern terminus in Macon in Bibb County, and crosses I-475 before heading through the southern portion of Monroe County to Thomaston in Upson County. SR 74 turns northwest, cuts through the southwestern corner of Pike County, and heads west into Woodbury in Meriwether County, where it intersects with SR 85 and stays co-signed with SR 85 until just south of Peachtree City.
From Woodbury, the route turns north and runs through Gay, Georgia and through the Coweta County municipalities of Haralson and Senoia, before splitting from SR 85, becoming a four-lane highway, and heading into Peachtree City in Fayette County. Continuing north through Tyrone, the route reaches its northwestern terminus in Fairburn shortly after crossing I-85

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“In the mountains the shortest route is from peak to peak, but for that you must have long legs. Aphorisms should be peaks: and those to whom they are spoken should be big and tall of stature.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“As they are not seen on their way down the streams, it is thought by fishermen that they never return, but waste away and die, clinging to rocks and stumps of trees for an indefinite period; a tragic feature in the scenery of the river bottoms worthy to be remembered with Shakespeare’s description of the sea-floor.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
