Highway 119 (AR 119, Ark. 119, and Hwy. 119) is a former state highway in Mississippi County, Arkansas. Created in 1927, the route connected a Mississippi River levee road to the state highway system until deletion in 2022. It was maintained by the Arkansas Department of Transportation (ArDOT).
Route description
[edit]The route began at an access road for a Mississippi River levee at the unincorporated community of Butler and ran west to an intersection at US 61 (the Great River Road) between Rotan and Driver.[5]
History
