Oklahoma State Highway 164

State Highway 164 (abbreviated SH-164 or OK-164) is a state highway in north-central Oklahoma. It runs from State Highway 74 in Covington to US-77 west of Perry. SH-164 is 12.64 miles (20.34 km) long.^[1][2] It has no lettered spur routes.

Route description

State Highway 164 begins on the southern fringes of Covington at a junction with SH-74. The highway heads east-southeast from this point, paralleling a rail line. About three miles (4.8 km) away from the terminus, the highway breaks away from the railroad, heading on a more easterly course, bypassing Hayward to the north. The highway then crosses from Garfield County into Noble County. Just after entering Noble County, it runs along the north outskirts of Lucien. The road then continues on a due east course before ending at US-77 west of Perry.^[3]

History

SH-164 was originally part of U.S. Highway 64, until the Cimarron Turnpike (and its western expressway extension into Enid) was built in the 1970s. US-64 then was routed onto Interstate 35 until it reached that expressway and turned onto it. The old alignment of US-64 between Perry and Covington then became SH-164.^[4]
