Route description edit
State Highway 146 begins at SH-9 north of Fort Cobb. SH-146 heads due north for one mile (1.6 km) before making a sharp turn to the east. After approximately one-half mile (0.80 km), the highway turns north-northwest, crossing over Cobb Creek, the outlet of Fort Cobb Lake. The highway then resumes a due north course, passing about one mile (1.6 km) east of the lake. After around five miles (8.0 km), the highway makes another ninety-degree turn to due east, returning to due north after approximately three-quarters of a mile (1.21 km). Two miles (3.2 km) north of this curve, the highway passes through Albert, an unincorporated location. SH-146 continues north of Albert for five miles (8.0 km) before reaching Three Way Corner, its junction with SH-152, where it ends.[2]
History edit
SH-146 first appeared on the 1962 official state map. At this time, the highway followed its present-day route, and its entire length was paved.[3] No changes have been made to the route since 1962.[4]
