State Highway 66 is a 196-mile[1] (315 km) section of former U.S. Highway 66, beginning at U.S. Highway 60 near White Oak and ending at U.S. Highway 81 at El Reno. Although most of the highway follows Historic Route 66, the highway joins Interstate 44 through Tulsa and Oklahoma City while the historic route follows various city streets through both cities.
The highway has retained its importance for most of its length due to its paralleling Interstate 44 which between Missouri and Oklahoma City (except in the cities of Tulsa and Oklahoma City) is a toll road.
