Source-derived summary

Kentucky supplemental roads and rural secondary highways are the lesser two of the four functional classes of highways constructed and maintained by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, the state-level agency that constructs and maintains highways in Kentucky. The agency splits its inventory of state highway mileage into four categories:

The State Primary System includes Interstate Highways, Parkways, and other long-distance highways of statewide importance that connect the state's major cities, including much of the courses of Kentucky's U.S. Highways.

The State Secondary System includes highways of regional importance that connect the state's smaller urban centers, including those county seats not served by the state primary system.

The Rural Secondary System includes highways of local importance, such as farm-to-market roads and urban collectors.

Supplemental Roads are the set of highways not in the first three systems, including frontage roads, bypassed portions of other state highways, and rural roads that only serve their immediate area.

The same-numbered highway can comprise sections of road under different categories. This list contains descriptions of Supplemental Roads and highways in the Rural Secondary System numbered 200 to 299 that do not have portions within the State Primary and State Secondary systems.

KY 200

Kentucky Route 200 is a 18.041-mile-long (29.034 km) rural secondary highway that traverses far southeastern Clinton County and the southern half of Wayne County. It begins at the Tennessee state line as a continuation of Caney Creek Road in Pickett County, Tennessee, quickly crosses the Clinton–Wayne county line and passes through the community of Sunnybrook, and follows the valley of Carpenter Fork north to Otter Creek, which the route crosses during a brief concurrency with KY 1009. KY 200 meets the south end of KY 834 at Hidalgo and leaves the Otter Creek valley.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as wikimedia list article. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 19, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q104842962. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1009.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it
