Route description
SR 135 begins at the Florida state line intersecting with County Road 141 south (CR 141).[1] In Echols County it intersects SR 94, and SR 376.[2] SR 135 enters Lowndes County west of Valdosta. The only major junction in the county is with US Route 84/State Route 38 (US 84/SR 38).[3] SR 135 then enters Lanier County south of Stoctkon. In downtown, it runs concurrently with US 221/SR 31 for a short way. North of Lakeland, it runs concurrently with SR 64.[4] SR 135 enters southeast of Nashville. Just north of the county line, SR 64 splits off and joins SR 168. SR 135 also intersects SR 76, which terminates at SR 135.[5] SR 135 enters Atkinson County south of Willacoochee. In Willacoochee, it runs concurrently for a short distance with US 82 and SR 520.[6] SR 135 enters Coffee County south of Douglas, where it also runs parallel to a former Central of Georgia Railway right-of-way. In Douglas, it runs concurrently with SR 206 before the latter terminates. At the terminus, SR 135 runs concurrently with US 221 again. Together, they intersect SR 32, SR 158, and SR 206 Connector (SR 206 Conn) before leaving Douglas.[7] SR 135 enters Jeff Davis County southwest of Hazlehurst. It intersections SR 107 just north of Denton; SR 107 terminates at SR 135. In Hazlehurst, US 221 splits off for a short way, while SR 135 picks up SR 135 Conn. SR 135 then picks US 221 back up, heading north. They then run concurrently with US 23, US 341, SR 19, and SR 27. After intersecting SR 19 Conn, these roads split off.[8] SR 135 enters Montgomery County south of Uvalda. In Uvalda, US 221 splits off at a junction with SR 56. North of Uvalda, SR 135 intersects SR 130. In Higgston, SR 135 terminates at US 280, SR 15, SR 29, and SR 30.[9]
