State Road 9 in the U.S. State of Indiana is a long north-south state highway in the eastern portion of Indiana. Its southern terminus is near Columbus at State Road 46, and the northern terminus is at the Michigan/Indiana state line between Howe, Indiana and Sturgis, Michigan, where it continues as M-66.

Some of Indiana 9 is divided highway and even freeway, but Interstate 69 largely supplants it as all but a regional route between Huntington and Anderson.

Miscellanea

The nickname of State Road 9 is utilized because three of Indiana's five Vice Presidents lived in cities along the route:
*Thomas A. Hendricks — Grover Cleveland's Vice President (1885) from Shelbyville
*Thomas R. Marshall — Woodrow Wilson's Vice President (1913-1921) from Columbia City
*J. Danforth Quayle — George H.W. Bush's Vice President (1989-1993) from Huntington

Indiana's other two vice presidents are also honored by the highway nickname:
*Schuyler Colfax — Ulysses S. Grant's Vice President (1869-1873) from South Bend
*Charles W. Fairbanks — Theodore Roosevelt's Vice President (1905-1909) from Indianapolis
