Route description

AR 135 begins at US 63 south of Tyronza and runs north to intersect AR 118 before meeting AR 14/AR 140 in Lepanto.[3] The route continues north to Caraway, where it meets concurs with AR 158. The concurrency ends in Black Oak, when AR 135 begins to arrow west with AR 18.[4] The route leaves AR 18 in Lake City, after which it angles north to Paragould. In Paragould, AR 135 meets US 412, US 49 BUS, and US 49/AR 1 before exiting town headed north.[5] The route meets AR 34 north of Oak Grove Heights, which it follows until Lafe.
