===Georgia=== {{Main|Interstate 75 in Georgia}} I-75 enters [[Georgia (U.S. state)|Georgia]] near [[Lake Park, Georgia|Lake Park]], and it continues northward through the towns of [[Valdosta, Georgia|Valdosta]], [[Tifton, Georgia|Tifton]], and [[Cordele, Georgia|Cordele]] until it reaches the [[Macon, Georgia|Macon]] area, where it intersects with [[Interstate 16|I-16]] eastbound toward I-75's route. After Macon, it passes the small town of [[Forsyth, GA|Forsyth]]. The freeway reaches no major junctions again until in the [[Atlanta metropolitan area]]. The first metropolitan freeway met is [[Interstate 675 (Georgia)|I-675]], then followed by [[Interstate 285 (Georgia)|I-285]], Atlanta's only beltway dubbed as the Perimeter Beltway. It crosses inside the I-285 beltway and heads north several miles toward [[Downtown Atlanta]]. I-75 then [[concurrency (road)|runs concurrently]] with [[Interstate 85|I-85]] due north over the [[Downtown Connector]] through the central business district of Atlanta, where it intersects with [[Interstate 20|I-20]]. The areas where I-85 and I-75 run concurrently are some of the most traffic-prone Interstate Highways in the nation. After the two Interstates split, I-75 diverts from I-85 and heads toward the northwest suburbs of Atlanta, with the major cities being [[Marietta, GA|Marietta]] and [[Kennesaw, GA|Kennesaw]] that it bypasses. To the northwest of Marietta, the highway runs concurrently with [[Interstate 575|I-575]]. After the interchange with I-575, the highway leaves the Atlanta metro area and traverses the [[Blue Ridge Mountains]] in the north Georgia region as it heads toward Chattanooga.
