State Route 238

Arizona State Route 238

Arizona 238 is one of the newest additions to the state highway system, but the road itself is much older. Arizona 238 connects Maricopa to Gila Bend, paralleling the Southern Pacific Railroad tracks - however, the state highway ends halfway between the two, leaving the rest of the distance to be covered by Maricopa County Road 238.

Arizona 238 was added to the state highway system in 1986 to serve a proposed hazardous waste plant, as well as a landfill. The remaining section under Maricopa County maintenance was paved in the late 1990s.
