North Carolina Highway 134 (NC 134) is a primarystate highway in the U.S. state ofNorth Carolina. The 19.3-mile (31.1 km) highway provides a more direct route betweenTroy andAsheboro, viaI-73/I-74/US 220 orUS 220 Bus.
NC 134 is a predominantly two-lane rural highway that begins in downtown Troy at the intersection of North Main Street and East Main Street. Going north, it travels next to Denson Creek Golf Course before becoming the eastern edge of theUwharrie National Forest. A couple of times the national forest goes over the eastern side of the road but not many. At Beane Country Road, the Uwharrie Forest finally goes west of the road as the road continues north. At Dawson Miller Road, NC 134 ends, just 600 feet (180 m) from theI-73/I-74/US 220 interchange.
NC 134 was established in 1966 as a new primary route along existing secondary roads; fromNC 109 Bus, in Troy, toUS 220, south of Ulah.[2] In 1974, it was extended south, overlapping with NC 109 Bus, to its current terminus withNC 24/NC 27/NC 109 Bus.[3]
