Oklahoma State Highway 84

State highway in Oklahoma, United States
SH 84 was first established in 1940 and originally did not incorporate any of its present day extent into its route. Throughout the 1940s and 1950s the route was expanded north, but in 1968 it was truncated to its current length.

State Highway 84 begins in Dustin at SH 9. From its terminus, SH 84 heads north along Broadway Avenue. As the highway heads out of town, it turns to the northwest, and then to the north, eventually resuming a due north course shortly before crossing the Hughes–Okfuskee County line. In Okfuskee County, SH 84 crosses the North Canadian River. North of the crossing, the highway turns northwest to remain in the river valley. It then bridges Bad Creek, a tributary of the North Canadian, just upstream of its mouth. At this point, the route turns to the west, paralleling the North Canadian. The highway has a level crossing with a railroad east of Weleetka. SH 84 follows alongside the railroad until reaching its terminus at US 75 on the eastern outskirts of town. On December 30, 1942, a section of gravel road corresponding to present day SH 84 was added to the Oklahoma highway system as a farm to market road. In 1943, SH 84 was extended north; the highway now connected to SH 9, forming a through route from US 75/270 to SH 9. By 1954, the farm to market road north of SH 9 had been numbered as part of SH 84. This segment of highway was paved by 1959. The remaining unpaved portion of highway, that south of SH 9, was removed from the state highway system in 1968, leaving the highway with its present day routing and termini.
