. US 301 Byp., along with US 25 Byp. and SR 67 Byp., makes up the Veterans Memorial Parkway, which forms a near circle around the city. The bypass begins in the southwestern part of the city at the intersection with US 25/US 301/ SR 73, as well as US 25 Byp./SR 67 Byp. US 301 Byp., SR 67 Byp., and SR 73 Byp. travel southeast and east along the perimeter of Georgia Southern University. They follow the perimeter of the university, turning northeast towards Fair Road ( SR 67), where it breaks off from the university perimeter and turns northward. Here, SR 67 Byp. ends, while US 301 Byp. and SR 73 Byp. continue. After turning north, the bypass intersects Northside Drive ( US 80/ SR 26), East Main Street ( SR 24), and finally East Parrish Street (US 301/SR 73). The entire length of US 301 Byp. and SR 73 Byp. 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. The Veterans Memorial Parkway was commissioned in 1993. Both US 25 Byp. and US 301 Byp. were completed at the same time as two-lane highways. Several years later, US 25 Byp. was widened to become a four-lane divided highway. In March 2007, work began on the widening of US 301 Byp. The bypass was completed in October 2008. US 301 Byp., commonly referred to simply as "the bypass", has become one of the most congested roads in Statesboro. The widening of the road, which was supposed to be completed by 2006, was not completed due to a faulty contractor. A new contractor was hired by the

of US 301. It began at the US 301/ SR 21/ SR 73 Loop bypass around western Sylvania. The highway, which was named West Ogeechee Street curved northeast in front of a former segment of the road which also leads to a former segment of SR 21, then passes\d the northbound frontage road for the Sylvania Bypass. It traveled straight northeast and southwest along random commercial development until it curved to the east and encountered the intersection of SR 21 Bus. (Mims Road) with turning ramps at both the northwest and northeast corners. The SR 21 Bus./SR 73 concurrency begins and the two highways travel to the east for just over , part of which uses a bridge over a railroad line. The road divided before approaching Main Street and City Hall, where SR 21 Bus. turns south on South Main Street, while SR 73 turns north on North Main Street. Main Street itself is divided by a town green from Telephone Avenue to halfway between Ogeechee Street and W.T. Sharpe Drive, while East Ogeechee Street becomes an unmarked city street.
