State Route 160 is a state highway in southern Nevada, USA. It connects the southern Las Vegas Valley to U.S. Route 95 northwest of the city via the Pahrump Valley. The southern part of the route sees heavy traffic, mostly due to Pahrump's continued growth as a Las Vegas bedroom community.
The route is known as Blue Diamond Road within the Las Vegas area, with the remainder referred to as the Pahrump Valley Highway.
A portion of the route was originally part of State Route 16 prior to 1978.

Famous quotes containing the words state and/or route:
“Me, rule? Me, place the State under my law, when my feeble reason no longer rules even myself!”
—Jean Racine (1639–1699)
“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)
