Route Description
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.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“A route differs from a road not only because it is solely intended for vehicles, but also because it is merely a line that connects one point with another. A route has no meaning in itself; its meaning derives entirely from the two points that it connects. A road is a tribute to space. Every stretch of road has meaning in itself and invites us to stop. A route is the triumphant devaluation of space, which thanks to it has been reduced to a mere obstacle to human movement and a waste of time.”
—Milan Kundera (b. 1929)
“An intentional object is given by a word or a phrase which gives a description under which.”
—Gertrude Elizabeth Margaret Anscombe (b. 1919)
