Kentucky Route 627 (KY 627) is a 30.367-mile-long (48.871 km) north–southstate highway in east-central Kentucky, United States. It traverses portions of northernMadison,Clark, and southernBourbon counties.
KY 627 begins in northern Madison County at theconcurrently running part of highwaysU.S. Route 25 andU.S. Route 421 (US 25/US 421) north ofRichmond. Just east of that is an interchange withInterstate 75 (I-75). The state highway continues northward to pass nearFort Boonesborough State Park (KY 388 provides access to that destination) and enters Clark County.[4]
KY 627 arrives at Winchester, where it crossesUS 60, and laterI-64. The state highway goes further north to enter Bourbon County and into the city of Paris, where it terminates in downtown at a junction with a one-way couplet inUS 68 Business.[4]
The routing of KY 627 from near Fort Boonesborough to Paris, along with much of KY 388 in Madison County was originally part ofUS 227 when it existed from 1928 until the U.S. Route's 1972decommissioning. The KY 627 designation was assigned by theKentucky Department of Highways the same year as the decommissioning of US 227.[5][6]
The original KY 627 ran from KY 234 to US 231 in Bowling Green; this was given to the city of Bowling Green, but became part ofKY 880 on February 9, 1983.
