US 278 Byp./SR 12 Byp. begins at mainline US 278/SR 12, which turns from southeast to straight east as those highways head into historic downtown Warrenton. 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.

The roadway that would eventually become US 278/SR 12 was established between July 1957 and June 1960 as SR 16 Spur from SR 16 in the south-southwest part of the city to SR 16 in the southeast part of the city.[21][22] In 1973, SR 16 was shifted onto most of the path of SR 16 Spur (except for its western end. The former path of SR 16 was redesignated as SR 12 Conn.[23][24] In 1989, SR 16's path in the city was reverted to its former path, replacing SR 12 Spur. The former path of SR 16 was redesignated as US 278 Byp./SR 12 Byp.[18][19]
