State Highway 141 (SH-141) is an 8.24-mile-long (13.26 km)[1] state highway in Sequoyah Co., Oklahoma, USA. It connects U.S. Route 59 (US-59) to US-64 and runs through Gans. It has no lettered spur routes.
SH-141 was first added to the state highway system in 1958 as a gravel highway and was gradually paved between then and 1966.
State Highway 141 begins at US-59 east of Robert S. Kerr Lake, south of Sallisaw. From this terminus, SH-141 proceeds due east for about 3 miles (4.8 km). The highway then turns north for about a half mile (0.3 km) before resuming its easterly course. The highway continues east for about 3 miles (4.8 km) more, passing south of Pine Mountain. The highway then turns northeast to pass through the town of Gans, where it crosses a railroad track. Northeast of town, the road turns to the east once again before coming to an end at US-64.[3]
SH-141 first appeared on the 1959 official state map, implying that it was commissioned the previous year. At this time, SH-141 had the same extent as it does today, but was completely gravel, and terminated north of Gans rather than turning back east as it does today.[2] By 1961, the highway had been rerouted to end at its current eastern terminus; the portion of highway east of Gans was also paved at this time.[4] In 1966 the remainder of the highway was paved.[5]
The entire route is in Sequoyah County.
