Route Description
State Route 177 runs northwesterly through Butler and Preble Counties.

History
State Route 177 was first designated in 1934 along its current alignment, replacing what was previously designated as State Route 224. The re-designation came as a result of the debut of U.S. Route 224 in Ohio that year, and the state's practice of not duplicating a state route designation for a U.S. highway designation. No changes have taken place to the routing of State Route 177 since it was established.[4][5]
