Exit identification numbers changing

Sometime between now and July, all of the exit numbers on Georgia's interstate highways will change.

Statewide changes from a sequential numbering system to a mileage-based system, in which exit numbers correspond to the distance to the state line, was effective Jan. 1, and contractors are in the process of changing signs to reflect the new policy.

Interstate 85 exits used by Fayette residents are changed as follows:

Ga. Highway 138 exit, formerly exit 13, is now exit 64.

Ga. Highway 74 exit, formerly number 12, is now number 61.

Collinsworth Road exit, formerly 11, is now exit 56.

Ga. Highway 154/McCollum-Sharpsburg, formerly exit 10, is not exit 51.

For information, phone the Georgia Department of Transportation at 888-419-4368.
