State Highway 23 (SH-23 or OK-23) is a state highway in Oklahoma. It runs 36.2 miles[1] south-to-north through the center of Beaver County, in the Panhandle, running from the Texas state line to the Kansas state line.
There are no letter-suffixed spur highways branching from SH-23.
[edit] Route description
SH-23 begins at the Texas state line five miles north of Booker, Texas. It travels eight miles due north to the intersection with US-270/US-412/SH-3, at the crossroads settlement of Elmwood.
Proceeding 14 miles north, SH-23 reaches Beaver, the seat of Beaver County. Just north of Beaver, the highway crosses the Beaver River, and in six miles doglegs east at US-64 just east of Forgan, before turning north again, where it ends seven miles later at the Kansas state line.
SH-23 overlaps US-270 for 20 miles between US-412 and US-64, and with US for one mile, east of Forgan.
