Route 64 is a highway in central Missouri with endpoints of Route 254 south of Hermitage and Interstate 44 in Lebanon.
Route 64 is one of the original 1922 state highways and originally ran between Preston and Collins. It would eventually be moved further to the south with its older alignment becoming U.S. Route 54. It would also be extended east.
[edit] Spurs
Route 64 is the only remaining Missouri highway with two lettered branches. Additionally, a short spur connects to Route 5 in Lebanon.
- Route 64A (2 miles (3.2 km)) is a short spur off Route 64 which ends in Bennett Spring State Park. When Route 64 was on its old alignment, another Route 64A went north to the Benton/Hickory county line and is now part of Route 83.
- Route 64B (2 miles (3.2 km)) is a spur off Route 64 between Nemo and Pittsburg. It ends at Pomme de Terre Lake.
