Tennessee State Route 374
State highway in Tennessee, United States
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
State Route 374 (SR 374) is an east west state highway in Montgomery County, Tennessee, that acts as a cross-town arterial road. The part connecting U.S. Route 79 northeast and west of the central business district is also part of the National Highway System.[3] The route serves as a northern bypass around downtown Clarksville Tenn., and also provides access to Fort Campbell, a United States Army installation that is the headquarters for the 101st Airborne Division and the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (Airborne). It currently runs from U.S. Route 79 (US 79) to US 41 Alternate. The route is planned to be extended southward to SR 149 from its western terminus, replacing a short section of that route to SR 13.

Route description
Honorary designations
SR 374 starts at one end in southeast Clarksville (near Sango) at US 41A, and heads northwest, then west, then south becoming:
- Richview Road past Memorial Drive.
- Warfield Boulevard to the junction of Wilma Rudolph Boulevard (US 79).
- 101st Airborne Division Parkway to Fort Campbell Boulevard (US 41A).
- Purple Heart Parkway to Lafayette Road.
The route forms a northern loop around central Clarksville. Warfield Boulevard and Richview Road are both two-lane sections; and the 101st Parkway, the Purple Heart Parkway, and the Paul B. Huff Parkway are all four-lane limited-access sections, meeting the federal (MUTCD) definition of an expressway.[4] The expressway features three interchanges: a single-point urban interchange with Wilma Rudolph Boulevard US 79, a variation of the partial cloverleaf interchange with Fort Campbell Boulevard (US 41A), and an uncompleted trumpet-like western terminus at Dover Road (US 79).
Warfield Boulevard is named for a family that owned the land before it was constructed there, but source. [citation needed]
Future
S.R. 374's western terminus is planned to be extended south across Lake Barkley to S.R. 174.[5]
