Jekyll Island is a Georgia state park barrier island that welcomes over 2.5 million visitors annually while maintaining a small year-round population of approximately 700 residents. The island’s unique status as a state-managed property with a single causeway access point creates both transportation bottlenecks and distinctive accident patterns involving bicycles, golf carts, and pedestrians alongside motor vehicles.
Bicycle rentals are enormously popular on Jekyll Island, and the island’s multi-use paths frequently intersect with motor vehicle roads, creating collision points that injure tourists and residents every season. With no hospital on the island, all serious injuries require emergency transport across the causeway to Brunswick — making prompt medical attention more difficult to obtain than in mainland communities.
