[edit] Termini

The south terminus is at an intersection with Iowa Highway 127 east of Mondamin. The north terminus is at an intersection with Iowa Highway 141 in Ute.

Previously, the highway had its southern terminus at U.S. Route 30 in Missouri Valley (1968-1970), U.S. Route 6 in Council Bluffs (1970-1981) and the north city limits of Council Bluffs (1981-July 1, 2003). The highway as currently constituted is the same as it was when it was commissioned in 1930. The previously existing segment between Missouri Valley and Council Bluffs was a portion of the Lincoln Highway and is now County Highway L20 in Harrison and Pottawattamie Counties.
