State Route 17 Connector - Bloomingdale

Georgia State Route 17 Connector

SR 17CO was designated in 2020 along the former southern extent of SR 17 between U.S. 80/SR 26 in the city of Bloomingdale to Interstate 16 at Exit 152. SR 17CO initially follows Bloomingdale Road along the previous route of SR 17 north 1.41 miles from the exchange with I-16. Replacing the route along Bloomingdale Road and Cherry Street north to U.S. 80/SR 26, the remainder of SR 17CO will take the Jimmy DeLoach Parkway Extension.

The Jimmy DeLoach Parkway Extension was a 2.73 mile long project running south from the parkway at U.S. 80/SR 17-26 to SR 17CO along Bloomingdale Road. The controlled access highway finally opened at the end of August 2022, following delays from October 2021, then May 2022.1
