State Route 172 was a state highway along the western part of Arizona. It was established for a route from the town of Parker to Parker Dam, along the Colorado River. It existed between 1958-1962. After the dam was completed the route was decertified. The road up to the dam site still exists today as a county route. It was the only spur route of State Route 72. The route is now a part of State Route 95.
