State Route 109 (SR 109) is a 71.0-mile-long (114.3 km) state highway that runs west-to-east through portions of Heard, Troup, Meriwether, Pike, and Lamar counties in the western part of the U.S. stateofGeorgia.
NOTES=April 1937 continued from lagrange to alabama line. October 1935 under construction for current entire length to be paved. January 1940 First seg compl paved. and first seg to chat river under construction. By Jan 1945 was paved to the river. construction begain to alabama line. paving was momentarily paused for paving ga 244 to have a paved route to alabama by 1948. July 1957 pavement was completed to Heard co. By 1960 paved to alabama but alabama had not completed their section until 1966. January 1944 SR 109 was routed to molena via hwy 18. in sept 1953 the section between molena and 18 was being paved with the second 109 segment designated. by 1960 the entire length of hwy 109 was paved.
SR 109 begins at the Alabama state line, where the roadway continues as CR 20, west of Glenn. The road heads eastward, until it enters town. Then, it heads southeast into Troup County. Farther in the county, it meets the eastern terminus of SR 109 Spur (Roanoke Road). At this intersection, the highway turns left to cross over West Point Lake. It enters LaGrange and intersects US 29/SR 14. In the main part of town, the three routes meet US 27/SR 1/SR 219. At this intersection US 29/SR 14 depart to the north, along US 27/SR 1/SR 219 north. On the east end of town, it has an interchange with Interstate 85 (I-85). Then, it crosses over, but does not interchange with I-185. In Greenville, the highway meets US 27 Alternate/SR 18/SR 41, as well as SR 100 (North Depot Street). Here, US 27 Alternate/SR 18/SR 41/SR 109 run concurrent around the city square. SR 18 runs concurrent with SR 109 to the east. Just before leaving town, they intersect SR 109 Spur (Gay Road). In Woodbury, is an intersection with SR 85 Alternate (Whitehouse Parkway). Then, they meet SR 74/SR 85. At this intersection, SR 74 joins the concurrency. Just before entering Molena, SR splits off on Crest Highway. In town, SR 18 splits off to the north-northeast, while SR 109 heads east. The road heads northeast to a concurrency with US 19/SR 3, just west-southwest of Meansville. SR 109 heads through town and meets its eastern terminus, an intersection with SR 18, located between Zebulon and Barnesville.
SR 109 is not part of the National Highway System, a system of roadways important to the nation's economy, defense, and mobility.[2]

State Route 109 Spur (SR 109 Spur) was a spur route that existed entirely within the west-central part of Troup County. It is now part of the SR 109 mainline and continued the name of Roanoke Road for its entire length.
It began at the Alabama state line, where the roadway now is CR 278. The road crossed over an arm of West Point Lake. It then passes the Harmony Cemetery, before it met its eastern terminus, an intersection with the former SR 109 mainline, west of LaGrange. The same stretch of roadway has been recorded in existence since 1939. Until just before the flooding of West Point Lake in 1975, this remained a local road. Between 1971-1974, SR 701 Spur was under construction which would follow the SR 109 Spur future routing. SR 109 Spur came into existence in just before 1976 as SR 701 and its spur were decommissioned following the flooding of the lake. SR 109 Spur maintained its designation in Troup County until 1987 at which time it merged with the mainline.[3]
SR 109 Spur was not part of the National Highway System, a system of roadways important to the nation's economy, defense, and mobility.[2]

State Route 109 Spur (SR 109) is a spur route that connects SR 18/SR 109 (Woodbury Road) in GreenvilletoSR 74/SR 85 (Oakland Road) in Gay. It is located in the central and east-central parts of Meriwether County.[4]
This road was designated because of the long distance on SR 74/SR 85 connecting Gay and SR 18/SR 109 in Woodbury.[citation needed] This also helps smooth traffic going to the Cotton Pickin' Fair in Gay.[citation needed]
The entire route is in Meriwether County.
