Route description

Route 465 (now part of Route 76) began at an interchange with Route 76 northwest of Branson in Stone County. A stub of the freeway with ghost ramps continues a short distance south of the interchange. From the junction with Route 76, the four-lane freeway headed north through wooded hilly areas, curving to the northeast. The median widened and the road entered Taney County before heading to the north again. The Route turned to the east, with the median narrowing before an interchange with Route 248. Past this interchange, the highway continued east through more rural areas. The freeway ended as the road came to an at-grade intersection with Adair Road. Route 465 went east as a four-lane undivided road for a short distance before ending at an interchange with US 65, where Route 76 now leaves the Highroad to start a concurrency along US 65 to downtown Branson. The road continues past US 65 as Route F.[2]

By March 2020, Missouri Route 76 will take over the Ozark Mountain Highroad (Missouri Route 465), the Missouri Department of Transportation said. Work to change the signing for Route 76 began the week of December 9th, 2019 will last until late March 2020.[3]

History

In order for the city of Branson to obtain the "strip" of Branson between Route 376 and US 65, Route 76 was routed on to the Highroad and US 65 between the Highroad and 76 Country Boulevard. As Route 76 was re-aligned on to the entirety of the highroad, Route 465 was decommissioned. Work to replace the old signage started on January 6, 2020 and is projected to end in March of 2020. Former Route 76 between the now city-maintained part of 76 Country Boulevard and the Highroad is now part of Route 376.[3]
