Route Description
SH-29 begins at an intersection with U.S. Highway 81 in Marlow, Oklahoma. It heads east from here, curving southeast after leaving town and eventually straightening out. The next town it passes through is the small but spread-out town of Bray. 12 miles (19 km) east of Bray, it meets State Highway 76, which it has a 5-mile (8.0 km) concurrency with. Six miles further east, SH-29 meets SH-74 at a four-way stop in Elmore City.
SH-29 next meets Interstate 35 at its Exit 66. Soon after passing under the Interstate, SH-29 meets U.S. Highway 77, and the two highways overlap over the Washita River into Wynnewood. US-77 splits off in downtown Wynnewood, and SH-29 continues eastward for 12 more miles before ending at US-177.

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)
“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)
