The north section runs from OR 126 Business in Springfield to OR 58 near Pleasant Hill. Incorporating a temporary location for part of its route, the north section is 8.00 miles (12.87 km) long and runs northwest to southeast.

The south section runs from a point on Cloverdale Road north of Rodgers Road near Cloverdale, along Cloverdale Road, to OR 99 in Creswell. It is 3.16 miles (5.09 km) long and runs generally east–west.

OR 222 is known as the Springfield-Creswell Highway No. 222 (see Oregon highways and routes).

Both sections run entirely within Lane County. If connected, they would probably be considered to run north–south, as they would form the eastern half of a loop.

OR 222 was established in 2002 as part of Oregon's project to assign route numbers to highways that previously were not assigned, and, as of August 2008, was unsigned, although OR 222 route shields did appear on construction warning signs in 2008.

gollark: RCT idea: We find a few thousand people, assign half of them a gender different to their own and half the same, without telling them which, then check after a year to see how involved each group was in esolangs.
gollark: That would not be a randomized controlled trial.
gollark: RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL TIME!
gollark: Esoteric programming languages cause the gender-related regions in the brain to undergo change. Obviously.
gollark: > it was all the trans peopleNo, I mean I suspect esolangs programmers just tend to be trans more frequently than the general population for unfathomable reasons and the server was non-terrible enough about it that they accreted here.
