The Rolla Business Loop of I-44 follows 2.42 miles of Historic U.S. 66 along Kingshighway east from Exit 184 to Bishop Avenue north around central Rolla and through the campus of Missouri University of Science and Technology. U.S. 63 and Missouri 72 join the route along Bishop Avenue to the east end at Exit 186.

The diamond interchange at the west end of Business Loop I-44 was reconstructed to include roundabouts at the ramp ends by December 2011. This includes a tie in with Martin Springs Drive, the south side frontage road to I-44.
