Along the way, it intersects State Route 292 (north of Ridgeway), State Route 274 (north of the crossroads of Big Springs), US 68 (at the former location of Whitestown, today occupied only by a butcher's shop), and State Route 638 (in Belle Center). It overlaps State Route 117 for a short distance near Indian Lake.
