Iowa Highway 31 is a diagonal route running from southwest to northeast in Woodbury County and Cherokee County in the far western portion of the state. It parallels the Little Sioux River for most of its length. Highway 31 provides an important link between Cherokee and Sioux City even though it does not enter either of those communities.
