About State Road 68

State Road 68 starts in a town called New Harmony. It begins where it meets State Road 69. From there, the road travels east across the state.

As it goes east, State Road 68 passes through several towns. These towns include Poseyville, Cynthiana, Haubstadt, Lynnville, and Selvin.

The road runs almost next to Interstate 64. Even though it crosses over Interstate 64 twice, there isn't a direct way to get onto Interstate 64 from State Road 68.

However, since 2008, State Road 68 does have a connection with Interstate 69. This makes it special because it crosses both the state road 69 and the interstate highway 69.

State Road 68 finally ends in the town of Dale. It finishes where it meets US 231.
