The roadway is known as Cedartown Highway until an intersection with Prospect Road. Then it is known as Elm Street. It enters the city limits of Rockmart and passes by Rose Hill Cemetery. Then, it crosses over Euharlee Creek and the Silver Comet Trail again on the Raymond Lester Bridge. The highway then curves to the east, at an intersection with Slate Street. At Piedmont Avenue, the business route turns to the north, remaining along that street for the rest of its journey. At an intersection with Clearwater Street, it curves to the north-northwest.

=U.S. Route 278 Truck (US 278 Truck) is a truck route of US 278 that travels south of downtown Madison. The entire length is also concurrent with SR 12 Truck (SR 12 Trk.). It also has concurrencies with SR 24 Spur, US 129/US 441/SR 24, and US 129/US 441 Bypass/US 441 Truck/SR 24 Byp./SR 24 Truck.
US 278 Truck/SR 12 Truck begins at mainline US 278/SR 12 and SR 83, which turns northeast at a fork in the road as those routes head into historic downtown Madison. At this intersection, SR 24 Spur (Ward Road), which also begins here, has a concurrency with US 278 Truck/SR 12 Truck. The three highways curve southeast until they reach US 129/US 441/SR 24. They turn south onto a concurrency with these highways. At this intersection, the SR 24 Spur ends. The highways travel to the south until they reach an intersection with the southern terminus of US 129 Byp./US 441 Byp./US 441 Truck/SR 24 Byp./SR 24 Truck. Here, US 278 Truck/SR 12 Truck follows US 129 Byp./US 441 Byp./US 441 Truck/SR 24 Byp./SR 24 Truck. US 278 Truck/SR 12 Truck ends at US 278/SR 12 as well as US 129/US 441/SR 24 just northeast of the city.

=U.S. Route 278 Bypass (US 278 Byp.) is a 1.6-mile-long (2.6 km) bypass route of US 278 that exists entirely within the city limits of Warrenton, Georgia.

It crosses over Goldens Creek and then crosses over a former Central of Georgia Railway line before encountering the intersection with SR 16, which is the former path of SR 12 Conn. After the intersection of Shoal Street, the highway begins to curve east in front of the right-of-way of a former connecting ramp to SR 16. The road serves as the northern terminus of SR 171 across from the Warren School Bus Shop, and then begins to curve to the northeast, even more so when it approaches SR 80 (Quaker Road) which joins the bypass in a concurrency. US 278 Byp./SR 12 Byp. ends at a second intersection with US 278/SR 12, and SR 80 continues north towards Waynesboro and Shell Bluff.
