Due to the hurricane, Steve’s route for this trip wasn’t a straight shot (Combo of I-75 and I-16) from the Atlanta area to Savannah. Instead, he left the shipper via I-85 and I-285 in order to reach I-20 which went east toward Augusta and eventually Columbia, SC. In Columbia, he took I-26 east toward I-95 in order to reach the Savannah area. From there, he took GA highway 21 to his intended delivery. This route also included I-520 in the Augusta area as portions of I-20 were blocked. Much of the route he traveled on September 27th from Madison, GA to Rincon, GA was littered with fallen trees and power lines. The video can be found on the BRT You Tube channel.
