I came out and looked at the property this morning. This is not a city or county road; the road appears to be an access road for the Central GA E.M.C. power line & Georgia Transmission line that runs down the right of way. You are correct that it is part of your property, but that part of the property false inside a utility easement. Usually, the homeowner is allowed to treat that section of property just like any other part of their property. It can be planted with grass and maintained just like the rest of the property with the exception of placing permanent structures or barriers like buildings or fences, that would deny the power company access to the right of way. C.G.E.M.C is the closest line to your house; you should contact them to find out any information about their right of ways & what they do and do not allow. Hope this information is helpful for you. Thanks

area in question is Central GA EMC powerline right-of-way. please refer to previous comment for more information.
