 | | Originally a route from Fitzgerald to an ending at nowhere of real importance, 29-mile SR 206, spanning Ben Hill, Irwin and Coffee Counties was one of several routes in Georgia that just kind of avoided any town of size in southeastern Georgia with the major traffic steering onto SR 353 between Douglas and Fitzgerald. |
 | | The major issue that likely held SR 206 in place was that the eastermost portion between Broxton and West Green (US 221) was unpaved well into the 1970's, thus the opportunity for federal funding to pave the route, now known as West Green Road was greater with the state in control. |
 | | As the remaining portion east of SR 206 east of SR 353 served these travelers between Broxton and Fitzgerald, SR 206 held on longer in the area, but the route just was not as important as SR 353, which served the majority of traffic. |
