Route description
Summarize
Perspective
Highway 175 begins at Highway 289 west of Cherokee Village in Northeast Arkansas.[3] The route is the main east–west highway through the community, with a former alignment now known as Highway 175 Spur beginning near the center of town and running south. Cherokee Village is a planned retirement community by John A. Cooper, a forerunner to Bella Vista and Hot Springs Village, which also include a series of winding roads, cul-de-sacs, golf courses, and other retirement amenities.[4]
Highway 175 intersects US Highway 62 (US 62) and US 412 shortly after entering Hardy, and a concurrency forms to the east through town.[5] While passing through the city, US 62/US 412/AR 175 begin an overlap with US 63, which continues east until Highway 175 splits north from the concurrency.
Highway 175 runs north through a sparsely populated rural area toward Missouri. The highway runs northeasterly to the community of Sellers' Store before turning north along a section line road to terminate at Wirth. The roadway continues as Pleasant Run Road, with a gravel crossroad named Wirth Road. The terminus is 1.5 miles (2.4 km) from the Randolph County line and 3.5 miles (5.6 km) south of the Missouri state line.[6]
