Route Description
Iowa Highway 191 begins at exit 28 of Interstate 680 (I-680) north of Neola in Pottawattamie County. This interchange is about 1 mile (1.6 km) west of the eastern end of I-680 at Interstate 80. Iowa 191 travels north for 1⁄2 miles (0.80 km) and enters Harrison County. Five miles (8.0 km) north of the county line, Iowa 191 enters the small town of Persia. Through Persia, Iowa 191 is called Railway Street, because the highway runs parallel to a BNSF Railway line.
North of Persia, Iowa 191 enters Shelby County. Three miles (4.8 km) north of the county line, Iowa 191 intersects Iowa Highway 44 just south of Portsmouth. North of Portsmouth, the highway enters Panama, which was originally known as Crandall's Station in the 1880s. Southwest of Earling, Iowa 191 and Mosquito Creek part ways; up to this point Iowa 191 had paralleled the creek as well as the rail line. It enters Earling on the southwest side of town and ends at an intersection with Iowa Highway 37 and Shelby County Road M16.

Famous quotes containing the words route and/or description:
“By whatever means it is accomplished, the prime business of a play is to arouse the passions of its audience so that by the route of passion may be opened up new relationships between a man and men, and between men and Man. Drama is akin to the other inventions of man in that it ought to help us to know more, and not merely to spend our feelings.”
—Arthur Miller (b. 1915)
“Once a child has demonstrated his capacity for independent functioning in any area, his lapses into dependent behavior, even though temporary, make the mother feel that she is being taken advantage of....What only yesterday was a description of the child’s stage in life has become an indictment, a judgment.”
—Elaine Heffner (20th century)
