Source-derived summary

State Highway 29 (abbreviated SH-29) is an east–west state highway in the U.S. state of Oklahoma. It runs for 58.5 miles (94.1 km) through Stephens Co. and Garvin Co., and has one lettered spur route.

Route description

SH-29 begins at an intersection with U.S. Highway 81 in Marlow, Oklahoma. It heads east from here, curving southeast after leaving town and eventually straightening out. The next town it passes through is the small but spread-out town of Bray. 12 miles (19 km) east of Bray, it meets State Highway 76, which it has a 5-mile (8.0 km) concurrency with. Six miles further east, SH-29 meets SH-74 at a four-way stop in Elmore City.

SH-29 next meets Interstate 35 at its Exit 66. Soon after passing under the Interstate, SH-29 meets U.S. Highway 77, and the two highways overlap over the Washita River into Wynnewood.

Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Oklahoma State Highway 29” as highway in Oklahoma. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewA dependable orientation record for establishing vocabulary, names and a first evidence trail. The current 143-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. The account is most persuasive where Oklahoma, State and Highway can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as highway in Oklahoma. 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 Apr 27, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q2172201. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. 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

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
