Arkansas Highway 25 is a north–south state highway in north central Arkansas. The route runs 127.36 miles (204.97 km) from Interstate 40 (I-40) in Conway north to US 63/US 412 in Black Rock through Heber Springs, Batesville, and the foothills of The Ozarks.[2][3][4][5]

Route description

[edit]
Highway 25 runs north in Conway

Highway 25 begins in Conway at U.S. Route 64 (US 64), just south of a junction with I-40. From Conway, the road runs north to Wooster, where it turns northeast, meeting US 65 in Greenbrier. The route overlaps US 65 for several miles north of Greenbrier, then continues northeast, meeting Highway 107 and Highway 225 before entering Quitman. Highway 25 continues diagonally northeast, meeting Highway 16 and Highway 5 near Heber Springs. A business loop and two spur routes both serve Heber Springs. Highway 25 continues north with Highway 5, a partnership named Heber Springs Road, until Highway 5 departs at Wolf Bayou. Highway 87 joins Highway 25 in nearby Concord.

Entering Independence County, Highway 25 meets Highway 14 in Locust Grove. The route meets US 167 just north of the Batesville Municipal Airport in south Batesville. In central Batesville, Highway 25 (here concurrent with US 167) meets Highway 69 before exiting town headed due east. Highway 122 meets Highway 25 near Cord, after which it begins heading north. Highway 25 runs north until Highway 230 in Strawberry, followed by a meeting and concurrency with Highway 361 from Lynn to Black Rock, where it terminates at US 63/US 412.

Except where it coincides with US 65 in Greenbrier and US 167 in Batesville (both undivided four-lane segments), and certain passing lanes, (mostly between Greenbrier and Heber Springs), it is entirely a two-lane highway. This hilly, curvy road is useful for those seeking the towns and recreational areas along it, mainly in the Greers Ferry Lake area.

History

[edit]

The segment between Conway and Wooster is a former route of US 65.

Before 1982 it included an east–west highway between US 63 approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) southeast of Portia, Arkansas and the Missouri state line, where it continued into Missouri. In 1982 this road was redesignated as the anomalous US 412. Major towns along the road include Walnut Ridge and Paragould. This section through the cotton country of eastern Arkansas was flat and largely straight, except where it passed through Crowley's Ridge west of Paragould. Its eastern terminus was then the Missouri state line at the St. Francis River, where it continued as Missouri Route 25 toward Kennett, Missouri.

Some sources continue to claim that Highway 25 ends at US 67/Highway 34 at Walnut Ridge. Though this was the original west end of US 412 when established in 1982 from Highway 25 east of Walnut Ridge, it was later extended west across Arkansas along the former Black Rock-Walnut Ridge segment of Highway 25 (including its concurrency with US 63 from Black Rock to Portia), thus truncating Highway 25 at Black Rock where it meets the present US 63/US 412 concurrency.[5][6]
