Route description
It runs between SH-76 north of Blanchard to a traffic light on US-62/277 in the southwest part of Newcastle. The speed limit is 55 MPH (88 km/h) for most of the route, though on the east end of the highway the speed limit falls to 45 MPH (72 km/h).[2]
SH-130 is also signed as Fox Lane by the city of Newcastle.[3]
History
SH-130 first appeared on the 1957 ODOT map, which was also the first to show SH-76's extension to Newcastle (previously, SH-76 ended in Blanchard).[4]. From 1957 to 1964, it was composed of gravel.[4] The route was apparently decommissioned in either 1964 or early 1965, as it appears on the 1964 map but not the 1965 edition.[5] SH-130 was brought back fourteen years later, reappearing on the 1979 map as a paved highway.[1] No changes have been made to the highway since then.
