State Route 260 (SR 260) is a 36.67adj=midNaNadj=mid state highway in southeastern Ohio. The route runs from SR 7 in Matamoras to SR 78 near East Union.
The route is signed as a north–south highway though it runs northwest–southeast between Matamoras and East Union. No part of the route is a part of the National Highway System.[2]
SR 260 was first assigned around 1926 on its present alignment between SR 145 in Road Fork to SR 78 near East Union, entirely in Noble County.[3] [4] SR 245 was signed on the present SR 260 route between Matamoras and Bloomfield at SR 26 as well; the section between SR 26 and SR 145 was not a part of the state highway system at the time. By 1933, SR 260 extended east from SR 145 in Monroe County to the community of Marr.[5] [6] Within the next two years, the route was extended south to Bloomfield and absorbed all of SR 245.[7] [8] Since then, no major changes have taken effect on the routing.
