U.S. Route 270 (US 270) was a proposed U.S. Highway that was planned for the northern part of Georgia and the western part of North Carolina. Its western terminus was to be at US 29/Georgia State Route 8 (SR 8) and SR 13 in Lawrenceville; while its eastern terminus was slated to be at US 25/US 70/North Carolina Highway 10/North Carolina Highway 20/North Carolina Highway 29 (US 25/US 70/NC 10/NC 20/NC 29) in Asheville. US 270 was to travel concurrently with SR 13 from Lawrenceville to Gainesville; SR 11 from Gainesville to the North Carolina state line, north-northwest of Blairsville; and NC 10 for its entire length in North Carolina. The highway was proposed in 1925 and canceled in 1927. It was replaced by SR 13, US 19, SR 11, and NC 10.
