U.S. Route 319 (US 319) is a spur ofUS 19. It runs for 303 miles (488 km) from US 98 at the foot of theJohn Gorrie Memorial Bridge across from downtownApalachicola, Florida toUS 1/SR 4 inWadley, Georgia, through thePanhandle ofFlorida and the southern portion ofGeorgia.


The route starts as a two-lane highway at the eastern end ofUS 98's bridge over theApalachicola River near theJohn Gorrie Bridge inApalachicola, Florida, and is concurrent with US 98 from its starting point. After crossing the East Bay portion ofApalachicola Bay via the John Gorrie Bridge, US 319 runs along theGulf coast ofFlorida'sPanhandle toCarabelle inFranklin County, and departs the coast, and its concurrency with US 98, about halfway between Carrabelle andBald Point State Park, in a north direction throughSopchoppy inWakulla County.
In Sopchoppy, the route angles east, briefly meets up with US 98 once more, before parting ways again and running north throughCrawfordville, where it receives theFDOT maintenance designation of State Road 369, intoTallahassee inLeon County. US 319 meetsSR 61 just south of Tallahassee, marking the northern end of SR 369, where it becomes a 4-lanedivided highway, which turns into 6 lanes as the route meetsSR 263 and forms part of the southern and eastern portion of theCapital Circle around Tallahassee. US 319 has the unsigned SR 261 designation betweenState Road 363/Woodville Highway and Capital Circle's eastern terminus atState Road 61/Thomasville Road. US 319/SR 61 has a complex interchange withI-10 at exit 203 before heading northeast out of the Tallahassee area. US 319 again becomes a 4-lanedivided highway at its intersection with County Road 0342 about 9 miles (14 km) from I-10, and runs to the state line withGeorgia.

The route bypasses Grady County and entersThomas County co-signed withSR 35 at the intersection ofSR 93 and travels northeast in the direction ofThomasville inThomas County, where the route forms the western and northern perimeter around Thomasville. US 319 then continues northeast, passes throughCoolidge, and crosses intoColquitt County, running as a bypass around the east ofMoultrie. The route crosses intoTift County and intersects withI-75 just before running throughTifton.
InOcilla, US 319/SR 35 is concurrent withSR 32, Half a mile later, US 319 turns north and is concurrent withUS 129 while SR 35 reach its terminus. US 319 And US 129 head intoBen Hill County and throughFitzgerald, where it splits from US 129 and first heads east, and then north through the northwestern corner ofCoffee County, where it meets up and is co-signed withUS 441, and crosses theOcmulgee River intoTelfair County, Georgia atJacksonville, Georgia and on intoMcRae-Helena. After briefly traversing the western corner ofWheeler County and eastern corner ofDodge County, US 319 continues north throughLaurens County, crossingI-16 just before heading into and throughDublin andEast Dublin, where US 441 splits off.
Continuing northeast, the route heads intoJohnson County, runs throughWrightsville, and heads into southernJefferson County, where it turns east inBartow, before meeting its northern terminus atUS 1 andSR 4 inWadley.
US 319 fromTifton to the Florida State Line is aGRIP corridor.
The following portions of US 319 and SR 35 are part of theNational Highway System, a system of routes determined to be the most important for the nation's economy, mobility, and defense:
The entire length of US 319 in Franklin County was designated as "Blue Star Memorial Highway" by the Florida State Legislature in 1957.[6]
The section of US 319 that is co-signed with US 98 and SR 30 in Medart in Wakulla County was designated as "Agnes Morrison Memorial Highway" by the Florida State Legislature in 1961.[6]
From Kinhega Drive, about 9 miles (14 km) north of its intersection with I-10 in Leon County, to the Georgia state line, US 319 and SR 61 were designated as "Kate Ireland Parkway" by the Florida State Legislature in 1992.[6]
US 319 does not make an appearance on Georgia road maps until October 1937, when the spur from the Florida state line to Thomasville is shown, co-signed withSR 3.[7] Prior to October 1937, US 19 appears as the designation of this section of the route.[8]
In July 1941, US 319 was extended from Thomasville, and ran through Moultrie, following what was signed as SR 35 at the time, toCordele, co-signed with the current route taken bySR 33 from Moultrie.[9] Since late in 1946, US 319 follows its current route.[10]
The section of US 319 that forms the Thomasville Bypass was designated as "Will Watt Parkway" in 1996 after a prominent resident of Thomasville.[11]
The section of US 319 that forms the east bypass around Moultrie in Colquitt County was designated as "Veterans Parkway" in 2002.[12]

U.S. Route 319 Business (US 319 Bus.) is a 6.8-mile-long (10.9 km)business route for US 319 that travels through the central portion ofMoultrie. It isconcurrent withSR 33 for its entire length.
US 319 Bus. begins at anintersection with US 319/SR 35 (Veterans Parkway) andSR 33 (Pavo Road) in the south-central part ofMoultrie. US 319 Bus. and SR 33 travelconcurrently as South Main Street to the north-northwest and immediately curve to the north-northeast. An intersection with 32nd Avenue SE leads to Colquitt Regional Medical Center. Oneblock later, an intersection with 31st Avenue leads to the hospital, as well. Just past an intersection with the eastern terminus of Hugh Bannister Drive, they begin a curve back to the north-northwest. Just south of an intersection with the northern terminus of Lower Meigs Road, the highways curve back to the north-northeast. An intersection with 11th Avenue leads to the Jim Buck Goff Recreation Complex. At 4th Avenue, the northbound lanes of US 319 and SR 33 turn right and travel to the east, while the southbound lanes stay on South Main Street. South Main Street remains a two-way street until 2nd Avenue SE. One block later, they turn left onto 1st Street SE and continue their northern direction. On the southeastern corner of the intersection with 2nd Avenue SE lies the main office for Southwest Georgia Bank.
One block later, at 1st Avenue SE, they intersect the eastbound lanes ofSR 37. Just north of this intersection, they pass theColquitt County Courthouse. One block later, they intersect the westbound lanes of SR 37 (East Central Avenue). On the northeastern corner of this intersection lies the annex for the county courthouse. Here, 1st Street SE changes to 1st Street NE. At this same point, South Main Street changes back to a two-way street. At an intersection with 1st Avenue NE, 1st Street NE becomes a two-way street. On the southwestern corner of an intersection with 2nd Avenue NE lies themunicipal building. On the northeaster corner lies the annex for the municipal building. Just north of 9th Avenue NE, they travel on a bridge over somerailroad tracks ofNorfolk Southern Railway (NS). North of Sylvester Drive, they have aroundabout with Sylvester Highway and the southbound lanes of US 319 Bus./SR 33. Just south of this roundabout is a sign for SR 33 south, even though it is actually still on Main Street. In fact, there is a directional sign in the roundabout that says that 1st Street NE is SR 33 south. The reunited lanes travel to the northeast. They cross overOkapilco Creek before they meet their northern terminus, an intersection with US 319/SR 35/SR 133 (Veterans Parkway/Tifton Highway). Here, SR 33 turns left onto East Bypass, concurrent with SR 133.
Between 2nd Avenue NE and 4th Avenue NW, they pass the U.S. post office for the city. Whereas the northbound lanes travel on a bridge over the NS line, the southbound lanes actually meet them at arailroad crossing. Just south of Sylvester Drive, the southbound lanes have an intersection withSR 111 (West Bypass NW). SR 111 does not meet the northbound lanes, or vice versa. Just north of Sylvester Drive, northbound Main Street has signage that indicates that it is northbound US 319 Bus./SR 33, although they are actually on 1st Street NE.
The entire length of US 319 Bus., and the portion of SR 33 concurrent with it, is part of theNational Highway System, a system of routes determined to be the most important for the nation's economy, mobility, and defense.[5]
The entire route is inMoultrie,Colquitt County.
