State Route 14 (SR 14) is a 87.4-mile-long (140.7 km)state highway that travels southwest-to-northeast through portions ofTroup,Coweta, andFulton counties in the west-central and north-central parts of the U.S. state ofGeorgia. The highway connects theAlabama state line inWest Point toDowntown Atlanta, viaLaGrange,Fairburn,College Park, andEast Point. Except for the northernmost segment, it is entirelyconcurrent withU.S. Route 29 (US 29).

SR 14 starts at its southern terminus just west of theChattahoochee River inWest Point inTroup County, and travels northeast throughLaGrange, parallelingI-85 to the west, and isconcurrent withUS 29 for almost its entire length, with the exception of a brief distance at its northern terminus. US 29/SR 14 turns slightly north after leaving LaGrange and travels throughHogansville, then turns northeast again, traveling throughGrantville, before crossing I-85 and traveling parallel to the interstate on its east side through portions ofCoweta County.
The route then travels intoMoreland, where it turns slightly northwest, crosses I-85 once more, and heads intoNewnan. Turning northeast once more, the route crosses intoFulton County and heads throughPalmetto,Fairburn, andUnion City, before crossingI-285 west ofHartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport. SR 14 then continues throughEast Point, crossesI-20, and arrives at its northern terminus atSR 154 and Ted Turner Drive NW in downtownAtlanta.
There following portions of SR 14 are part of theNational Highway System, a system of routes determined to be the most important for the nation's economy, mobility, and defense:

SR 14 was established at least as early as 1919 on its current path, from West Point to Atlanta.[2] Between September 1921 and October 1926, US 29 was designated on SR 14's entire length. Three segments of the highway had a completed hard surface: a portion in the east-northeast part of West Point, from south-southwest of LaGrange to just southwest of the Troup–Meriwether–Coweta countytripoint, and from Moreland to Atlanta.[5][6] By October 1929, the entire highway had a completed hard surface.[6][7]

State Route 14 Alternate (SR 14 Alt.) is a 13.7-mile-long (22.0 km)alternate route of SR 14 that exists entirely within the southern and southeastern parts ofFulton County. It connectsPalmetto withRed Oak, located southwest ofAtlanta. It isconcurrent withUS 29 Alt. for its entire length.
It begins at anintersection withUS 29/SR 14 (Main Street) in Palmetto. This intersection marks the northern end of US 29/SR 14's concurrency withSR 154, with which US 29 Alt./SR 14 Alt. begins concurrent. The three highways travel north on a nearly due-north direction, until they reachSR 70 (South Fulton Parkway). There, the alternate routes turn to the right, toward Atlanta. The concurrency heads northeast, passing Cedar Grove Lake, and intersectsSR 92 (Campbellton–Fairburn Road). They pass South Wind Golf Course and curve to a nearly due-east direction. In Red Oak, they have aninterchange with US 29/SR 14 (Roosevelt Highway). Here, both US 29 Alternate/SR 14 Alternate meet their northern terminus, and the roadway continues asSR 14 Conn.[20]
All of SR 14 Alt., from the eastern end of the SR 154 concurrency to its eastern terminus, is included as part of theNational Highway System, a system of routes determined to be the most important for the nation's economy, mobility, and defense.[4]
The roadway that would eventually become SR 14 Alt. was proposed in 1992 from SR 154 north-northwest of Palmetto toSR 14 Spur west of Red Oak.[23][24] The next year, this road was completed.[24][13] It wasn't until 2007 that US 29 Alt./SR 14 Alt. was designated on its entire current path.[21][22]
