Highway Review:
OK 137 connects U.S. 60 at the Twin Bridges State Park to OK 10,
six miles to the north. Before December 2002, the highway went
five more miles to the north and ended at Alternate U.S. 69 in
Quapaw. The road is still there, it is just now called County
Road 137, and large signs at both ends (OK 69A, the new name for
Alternate U.S. 69; and OK 10) make that known.

"OK 137
END" sign at U.S. 60 as OK 137 South
comes to an end. Twin
Bridges State Park is
named
for the Neosho River, just to the west, and the
Spring
River, just to the east. The two rivers converge
just
behind the trees ahead. (Photo taken 4/25/03) |

OK 137 South just

OK 137 North
assurance shield just north of U.S. 60. The
highway climbs sharply immediately after turning from
U.S. 60. The view pictured above was from the top of the
hill, about where the truck is. (Photo taken 4/25/03) |

U.S. 60 West
approaching OK 137 North. The highway
has to cross the Spring River before it intersects OK
137.
Obviously, OK 137 does not begin right here. (Photo

"Start County
Road 137" sign just south of OK 69A on
former OK 137 South. This
area once had an OK 137
South assurance shield. The
other side, of course,
says "End County Road
137." A
similar sign is located
just north of OK 10, where the
highway ends now.
