SR 272 heads northeast as a two-lane undivided road through a mix of farmland and forest to its eastern terminus at US 58 and SR 189, which run concurrently through much of Suffolk. The two highways head west as an unnamed highway toward Franklin and east as South Quay Road toward the center of Suffolk.[1][2]
