GA 2


State Route 2 (SR 2) is a west–east route in the northern part of Georgia. The route serves suburbs of Chattanooga, Tennessee, as well as much of the mountainous area in the northern part of the state. It traverses the counties of Walker, Catoosa, Whitfield, Murray, Gilmer, Fannin, Union, Towns, and Rabun.

From its western terminus at SR 193 in the community of Flintstone, the route runs east along Battlefield Parkway, with a brief concurrency with US 27/SR 1. It then intersects I-75, before reaching US 41/US 76/SR 3. After a brief concurrency with US 41/US 76/SR 3 through Ringgold, SR 2 splits off and continues east. After crossing the Conasauga River, the route has another brief concurrency with SR 225, then continues a short distance east to US 411/SR 61 at the community of Cisco. SR 2 runs concurrent with US 411/SR 61 to Chatsworth. In Chatsworth, SR 2 overlaps SR 52 east past Fort Mountain to Ellijay. In Ellijay, the route begins a lengthy concurrency with US 76 to the South Carolina state line. US 76/SR 2, as well as SR 5 and SR 515, travel to the northeast to Blue Ridge. In Blue Ridge, SR 5 departs to the north, while US 76/SR 2/SR 515 continue east to Blairsville. East of Blairsville, the route arcs to the north, then east, around Brasstown Bald. West of Hiawassee, SR 515 departs to the north, and US 76/SR 2 are joined by SR 17, then SR 75 in Hiawassee. East of Hiawassee, SR 17 and SR 75 depart to the south, and US 76/SR 2 continue east through a series of switchbacks over the Eastern Continental Divide to Clayton. In Clayton, US 76/SR 2 has a brief concurrency with US 23/US 441/SR 15, however Google Maps does not indicate any concurrency., US 76/SR 2 continue southeast to the South Carolina state line. Here, SR 2 ends, and US 76 continues to Westminster, South Carolina.

SR 2 originally followed a winding route through the Cohutta Mountains between Cisco and Blue Ridge. Due to the ruggedness of the terrain, coupled with landslides on one section of the route, SR 2 was rerouted to overlap SR 52 over Fort Mountain. A section of SR 2 from Fort Oglethorpe east to US 41/US 76/SR 3 is named the Baxter Shavers Memorial Highway after a deputy sheriff that was killed on this highway on April 14, 1978.

On March 25, 1958, the bridge over the Cartecay River at the city limits of East Ellijay was designated the 'A. Charles Soule Bridge'.
