Route description

Texas to Macedonia

File:P286 AH-549 over AH-160.JPG
Highway 160 crosses under Interstate 49 near Doddridge

Highway 160 begins at State Line Avenue as Farm to Market Road 249 near Bloomburg, Texas and heads east to a junction with Highway 237 before a junction with US 71 near Doddridge. The route runs underneath Interstate 49 before it crosses the Red River to enter Lafayette County.[6] The route continues east, passing Gin City where it meets Highway 360, Conway Cemetery on the National Register of Historic Places, and Highway 29 in Bradley.[7] Highway 160 heads southeast around Lake Erling before forming a concurrency north with Highway 53 to Walker Creek. The route enters Columbia County near Taylor where it forms a 0.13 miles (0.21 km) officially designated exception over US 371[8] before continuing northeast to Macedonia where it terminates at Highway 19.[9]

Mount Holly to Smackover

Highway 160 begins at Highway 57 in Mount Holly in the northwest corner of Union County. The route runs northeast to a junction with Highway 7 outside Smackover before entering the city limits.[10] Highway 160 terminates at Highway 7 Business (7th Street) near Smackover High School.[10]

Harrell to Fountain Hill route

Arkansas Highway 160 travels south until meeting AR 172, after which it begins to arrow east to join with US 63/AR 15. The merge continues until Hermitage, when AR 160 continues south past Ingalls and Vick (crossing the Fordyce & Princeton Railroad). The route then angles north towards Highway 8 in Johnsville. Beyond Johnsville, AR 160 becomes concurrent with AR 133 until Fountain Hill, where it terminates.
