State Route 7 is a north-south route located in the U.S. state of Georgia. The route is cosigned with either U.S. 41 or U.S. 341 for its entire length.
Routing
From its southern terminus at the Florida state line southeast of Lake Park, the route travels north, cosigned with U.S. 41. North of Valdosta, the two routes arc to the west to meet Interstate 75. U.S. 41/S.R. 7 continue north cosigned with Interstate 75 to Hahira. In Hahira, U.S. 41/S.R. 7 exit Interstate 75 and continue north, mostly in close proximity to Interstate 75. In Perry, S.R. 7 departs U.S. 41 and joins U.S. 341. The two routes travel northwest to Barnesville. In Barnesville, U.S. 341 reaches its northern terminus at U.S. 41; S.R. 7 continues north, signed with U.S. 41, to its terminus at U.S. 41's intersection with U.S. 19/S.R. 3 south of Griffin
Significance
With Interstate 75 running adjacent to it, S.R. 7 south of Perry is mainly used for local traffic. However, construction or closures on Interstate 75 can lead to the route being used as a detour.
