One segment of 2.06 miles (3.32 km) runs west from U.S. Route 71 Business (US 71B) in Waldron to the Waldron Municipal Airport.^{[a 1]}^[2] A second route of 1.58 miles (2.54 km) begins at US 59/US 270 at Rich Mountain and runs west to Highway 88 at Queen Wilhelmina State Park.^[3] Both routes are owned and maintained by the Arkansas Department of Transportation (ArDOT).

Route description

Waldron to Waldron Municipal Airport

The highway begins at US 71B (Main St) in Waldron and runs west as Crumptown Rd. The highway has a brief overlap with US 71, called an officially designated exception.^{[a 2]} Following this overlap, the highway breaks west and terminates at the Waldron Municipal Airport.

Queen Wilhelmina State Park to US 59/US 270

The highway begins about 12 miles (19 km) northwest of Mena and is within Polk County for its entire length.^[3] The western terminus of the route is at Highway 88 in Queen Wilhelmina State Park, near the summit of Rich Mountain. The eastern terminus is at the concurrency of U.S. Route 270 and U.S. Route 59. The highway gains over 650 feet (200 m) along its course.

History

The segment between Waldron and the airport was adopted as a state highway by the Arkansas State Highway Commission on March 28, 1973.^[5]
