From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Highway 47 is the former designation for U.S. Highway 62 between Rogers and Gateway and Highway 37 between Gateway and the Missouri State Line. Its southern terminus was at the intersection of 8th & Walnut Streets in Rogers, Arkansas with its northern terminus at the Missouri State Line just north of Gateway. When U.S. 62 was designated in Arkansas in 1930, Highway 47 was truncated to the 1/2 mile segment from Gateway to the Missouri State Line where it continued as Route 37. In the early 1980's, Highway 47 was re-designated as Highway 37 to match the Missouri numbering of the road.
