State Highway 37 (abbreviatedSH-37) is a designation for two separate highways in the state ofOklahoma. The northern section runs betweenHinton andMoore in central Oklahoma, while the southern section runs from the Texas state line at theRed River toIdabel, in southeastern Oklahoma. The northern section of SH-37 runs 65.8 miles (105.9 km) fromUS-281 in Hinton to Sunnylane Road (formerSH-77H) in Moore. The southern section of SH-37 is 12.54 miles (20.18 km) long.
The SH-37 in Central Oklahoma begins at US-281 in Hinton,Caddo County. It runs in a zigzag pattern for four miles (6.4 km) to the southeast before crossing intoCanadian County.[3] The Canadian County section runs in an irregular path to the southeast for 14 miles (23 km), before re-entering Caddo County.[4]
Back in Caddo County, SH-37 runs three miles (5 km) south to the town ofCogar, where it joinsSH-152 and turns to the east. Thisconcurrency goes two miles (3 km) before enteringGrady County.
In Grady County, SH-37/SH-152 goes 8.8 miles (14.2 km) to the east toUS-81. There, SH-152 turns to the north, and SH-37 joins US-81 for a one-and-a-half-mile concurrency toMinco, where SH-37 splits off and heads east once again.
SH-37 runs for 16.6 miles (26.7 km) in Grady County, serving as the northern terminus forSH-92 on the west edge ofTuttle, and intersectingSH-4 in Tuttle before crossing intoMcClain County.[5]
One mile into McClain County, SH-37 serves as the northern terminus forSH-76, then joinsI-44 for a brief concurrency three miles later.[6] SH-37 overlaps I-44 for three miles (5 km), running north across theCanadian River intoCleveland County andOklahoma City, where it runs east along S.W. 134th Street into the city of Moore, where it becomes S. 4th Street. SH-37 then continues eastward as a mostly hidden designation through the south side of the city.[7]
SH-37 ends at Sunnylane Road, formerlySH-77H, on the east side of Moore.
The southeastern SH-37 begins whereTX-37 crosses theRed River into Oklahoma, and heads north for two miles (3 km) to a junction withSH-98. At this point, SH-37 heads east for10+1⁄2 miles (16.9 km) to its terminus atUS-70 Bypass inIdabel.[2]
