Albany business route
U.S. Route 82 Business (US 82 Bus.) is a business route of US 82 that exists almost entirely within Albany. It follows North Slappey Boulevard and East Oglethorpe Boulevard through the city, and Sylvester Road east of the city. US 82 Bus. travels entirely concurrent with SR 520 Bus.; it also has a concurrency with US 19 Bus. and a brief concurrency with SR 234.[13]
The entire length of US 82 Bus. is part of the National Highway System, a system of routes determined to be the most important for the nation's economy, mobility, and defense.[14]
The roadway that would eventually become US 82 Bus. was established by the end of 1921 as part of SR 50 in the city.[15][16] By the end of 1929, this segment of SR 50 was indicated to be under construction.[17][18] By the middle of 1930, this segment had a completed hard surface.[18][19] Between February 1948 and April 1949, US 82 was designated on this portion of SR 50.[20][21] Between June 1960 and June 1963, the path of SR& 50 through Albany was split into SR 50N and SR 50S. SR 50N used Broad Avenue and Sylvester Road, while US 82/SR 50S used Oglethorpe Avenue and Albany Expressway.[22][23] In 1968, a northeastern bypass of the main part of Albany was proposed as a northern extension of SR 333 from the interchange of US 19/SR 333 and US 82/SR 50S in the eastern part of the city to US 19/SR 3W in the northwestern part of the city.[24][25] In 1973, SR 50N was redesignated as SR 50 Conn., while SR 50S was redesignated as the SR 50 mainline.[26][27] The next year, the bypass in Albany was built as a freeway, but there was no indication as to what highways were designated on it.[27][28] In early 1980, US 19, US 82, and SR 333 were indicated to be designated on the Albany bypass. The old path of the highways were redesignated as US 19 Bus./US 82 Bus. with SR 3 concurrent with them in the western part of the city and SR 50 concurrent with them in the southern and eastern parts of it.[29][30] Later that year, SR 333 was truncated out of Albany. SR 50 was shifted onto the US 19/US 82 freeway. Its old path in the city was redesignated as SR 50 Bus.[30][31] In 1988, SR 50 was truncated to Dawson. Its former path from Dawson to Jekyll Island was redesignated as part of SR 520. SR 50 Bus. was redesignated as SR 520 Bus.[32][33]
The entire route is in Dougherty County.
