The Cherokee Turnpike is a toll road in eastern Oklahoma. Opened in 1991, the route is a four-lane freeway carrying US 412 from east of Kansas, Oklahoma to east of Chouteau, and has a total length of 46 miles. An alternate route, Scenic US 412, provides a free but not controlled-access route through the towns bypassed by the Turnpike.

A two-axle vehicle currently pays $2.25 ($2.15 with Pikepass) to drive the full length of the Turnpike.
