Oregon Route 422

Oregon Route 422 (OR 422) is an Oregon state highway running from Modoc Point Road near Klamath Agency to US 97 near Chiloquin. OR 422 is known as the Chiloquin Highway No. 422 (see Oregon highways and routes). It is 5.29 miles (8.51 km) long and runs east–west, entirely within Klamath County.

OR 422 was established in 2002 as part of Oregon's project to assign route numbers to highways that previously were not assigned. Sometime before June 2007, an OR 422 shield was placed at the end of the off-ramp from NB US 97, but the rest of the route was still unsigned at that time.

OR 422 has an unsigned spur in Chiloquin, which runs 0.191 miles (0.307 km).
