Route description
The road begins at I-70, concurrent there with US 287, US 36 and US 40. It then heads northward into the town of Bennett, where it abruptly turns eastward and begins a short concurrency with SH 36. It then heads back northward slowly into a mass of rectangular fields, crossing the Adams–Weld county line. It continues northward in the same terrain, crossing numerous county roads, to its north end at SH 52.[1]
