Oregon Route 273 is an Oregon state highway running from OR 66 near Ashland to Interstate 5 near the California state line.

Maryland Route 273

Maryland Route 273 (MD 273) is a state highway in the U.S. state of Maryland. Known for most of its length as Telegraph Road, the state highway runs 16.58 miles (26.68 km) from U.S. Route 1 (US 1) near Harrisville east to the Delaware state line near Appleton, where the highway continues east as Delaware Route 273 (DE 273). MD 273 is the main east–west highway of northern Cecil County, connecting Conowingo (via US 1), Port Deposit (via MD 276), and Rising Sun with Newark, Delaware, via the communities of Calvert and Fair Hill, where the highway intersects MD 272 and MD 213, respectively. The state highway also provides access to Fair Hill Training Center. MD 273 contains a section of MD 274 Truck between MD 274 in Rising Sun and MD 272 in Calvert.

MD 273 west of Fair Hill was constructed as one of the original state roads, with the portion west of the intersection of Sylmar Road east of Rising Sun constructed as part of US 1 in the 1910s. The first sections of MD 273 proper were paved in the early 1910s west of Calvert. The final section of the state highway between Fair Hill and Appleton was completed around 1930. MD 273 was also assigned to the original state road between the Susquehanna River and Octoraro Creek when US 1 was moved to a new alignment serving Conowingo Dam in the late 1920s; that segment was returned to county maintenance in the late 1950s. MD 273 was extended west to its present western terminus when the Rising Sun Bypass was completed in 1957.

Missouri Route 273

Route 273 is a highway in northwestern Missouri. Its northern terminus is at the Kansas state line halfway across the Missouri River near Atchison, Kansas. At this point it is concurrent with U.S. Route 59 and Route 45 (with which it shares the terminus). The southern terminus is at Route 92 in Tracy. All but the southeastern-most six miles (10 km) overlap Route 45.

Virginia State Route 273

State Route 273 (SR 273) is a primary state highway in the U.S. state of Virginia. Known as Farmers Drive, the state highway runs 5.33 miles (8.58 km) from SR 30 in Barhamsville north to SR 30 and SR 33 at Eltham. SR 273 is the old alignment of SR 30 in eastern New Kent County.

Route description

SR 273 begins at an intersection with SR 30 (New Kent Highway) in Barhamsville. The state highway heads northeast through a mix of farmland and forest. As it approaches the York River, SR 273 veers north and parallels the river. The state highway crosses Mill Creek before reaching its northern terminus at SR 30 and SR 33 (Eltham Road) in Eltham, a short distance west of the Pamunkey River, which forms the York River in confluence with the Mattaponi River at West Point.

Major intersections

The entire route is in New Kent County.

Oregon Route 201

Oregon Route 201 is a north–south state highway in eastern Oregon. It currently runs from the Idaho state line just south of Adrian to Interstate 84 south of Huntington. Between the state line and Nyssa, it is known as the Succor Creek Highway No. 450 (see Oregon highways and routes), including the Homedale Spur of the same highway. Between Nyssa and Cairo Junction, it is part of the Central Oregon Highway No. 7 as a concurrency with U.S. Route 20 and U.S. Route 26, and north of Cairo Junction, it is the Olds Ferry-Ontario Highway No. 455. At the Idaho state line, Oregon Route 201 becomes State Highway 19.

An unbuilt extension of the Succor Creek Highway is designated southward from the start of the Homedale Spur to US 95.

History

Oregon Route 201 originally existed only as the Succor Creek Highway. It continued south of Adrian via Jordan Valley to McDermitt, where it continued as Nevada State Route 8. The route was completely decommissioned in 1940 with the extension of U.S. Route 95 through Oregon. It would not see new life until U.S. Route 30 was rerouted around Farewell Bend on roughly its current route.

Oregon Route 7

Oregon Route 7 is an Oregon state highway which runs from Interstate 84 at Baker City to U.S. Route 26 at Austin Junction. OR 7 traverses several highways of the Oregon state highway system: Whitney Highway No. 71, part of the La Grande–Baker Highway No. 66, and part of the Baker–Copperfield Highway No 12. A short spur, Oregon Route 410, serves the city of Sumpter.

Route description

OR 7 has its southern terminus at a junction with U.S. Route 26 at the unincorporated locale of Austin Junction. From Austin Junction, it runs roughly northeast, passing near Bates and Austin, and crossing the Middle Fork John Day River. The route continues northeast through the Malheur National Forest until it crosses the North Fork Burnt River and passes into the Wallowa–Whitman National Forest. The road follows the river roughly eastward until it reaches the community of Whitney, where it turns northeast again. South of Sumpter the route crosses the Powder River—in an area covered with gold dredge tailings—and forms a junction with Oregon Route 410. OR 7 continues southeast along the Powder River and passes Phillips Lake, an impoundment of the river dating from 1968. At its junction with Oregon Route 245 at Salisbury, the route veers north as it continues to follow the river, terminating in Baker City at an interchange with I-84.
