Iowa Highway 44 (Iowa 44) is an east–west highway in the central and west-central portions of the state. It runs parallel to Interstate 80, which runs 10 miles (16 km) to the south for most of Iowa 44's route. Iowa 44 begins at its junction with U.S. Highway 30 four miles (6 km) northeast of Logan. It ends at an interchange with the Iowa Highway 141 freeway at Grimes. Iowa 44 was created in 1969 when Iowa Highway 64 was shortened to its current route in eastern Iowa. Most of the route is a part of the Western Skies Scenic Byway.

History

Iowa 44 was created on January 1, 1969, when the Iowa State Highway Commission reorganized the state's primary highway system. Iowa 44 was one of 26 state highways to receive a new route number.[3] Prior to 1969, what is now Iowa 44 was part of two highways, Iowa 64 and Iowa 39.[4] Since its designation, the route has undergone few changes.

The westernmost 74 miles (119 km) of Iowa 44 are part of the state's Western Skies Scenic Byway.[5]
