# Kentucky Route 627

Kentucky Route 627 (KY 627) is a 30.367-mile-long (48.871 km) north–south state highway in east-central Kentucky, United States. It traverses portions of northern Madison, Clark, and southern Bourbon counties.

## Route description

KY 627 begins in northern Madison County at the concurrently running part of highways U.S. Route 25 and U.S. Route 421 (US 25/US 421) north of Richmond. Just east of that is an interchange with Interstate 75 (I-75). The state highway continues northward to pass near Fort Boonesborough State Park (KY 388 provides access to that destination) and enters Clark County.
KY 627 arrives at Winchester, where it crosses US 60, and later I-64. The state highway goes further north to enter Bourbon County and into the city of Paris, where it terminates in downtown at a junction with a one-way couplet in US 68 Business.

## History

The routing of KY 627 from near Fort Boonesborough to Paris, along with much of KY 388 in Madison County was originally part of US 227 when it existed from 1928 until the U.S. Route's 1972 decommissioning. The KY 627 designation was assigned by the Kentucky Department of Highways the same year as the decommissioning of US 227.
The original KY 627 ran from KY 234 to US 231 in Bowling Green; this was given to the city of Bowling Green, but became part of KY 880 on February 9, 1983.
