State Route 293 (SR 293) is a 29.7-mile-long (47.8 km) southeast-to-northwest state highway that travels from Emerson, in Bartow County, to Rome, in Floyd County, in the northwestern part of the U.S. state of Georgia. SR 293 travels along the western alignment of the historic Dixie Highway, from its southern terminus to its intersection with SR 293 Connector. The original southern terminus was with US 41 in Kennesaw, passing through Kennesaw and Acworth. This length of the roadway was originally part of US 41.
SR 293 begins at an intersection with US 41/SR 3 in Emerson, the highway runs northwest, passing through downtown Emerson before crossing the Etowah River and entering into Cartersville. It travels concurrent with SR 61/SR 113 through downtown Cartersville on Main Street. SR 293 leaves the concurrency through Bartow Street and Cherokee Avenue, before departing the city to the northwest via Cassville Highway. After crossing beneath US 411/SR 20, SR 293 intersects with the southern terminus of its only bannered route, SR 293 Connector. From here, the route turns to a more westerly direction, passing through Kingston. The route passes into Floyd County and later intersects with SR 1 Loop east of Rome. After its intersection with SR 1 Loop, SR 293 becomes a four-lane divided arterial road into downtown Rome. Shortly after its intersection with SR 53, SR 293 meets its northern terminus at US 27/SR 1.
