Iowa Highway 173 is a highway in western Iowa which runs in a south-north alignment. Its southern terminus is at Iowa Highway 83 northwest of Atlantic. Its northern terminus is in Kimballton at an intersection with Iowa Highway 44.

Route description

Iowa Highway 173 begins three miles northwest of Atlantic at an intersection with IA 83. It proceeds north for five miles, then intersects I-80. It continues north from there into Elk Horn, then proceeds north into Kimballton, where it ends at an intersection with IA 44.

When the highway was created in 1930, it was originally numbered Iowa Highway 169, and it only went between Elk Horn and Kimballton. Later in 1930, U.S. Route 169 was created and the highway number was changed to 173. In 1980, the highway was extended south from Elk Horn to meet Iowa Highway 83.
