KY 167 KY 169

Kentucky Route 168 is a two-lane route extending from US 23 in Westwood to the US 23/60 multiplex in Catlettsburg. It's southern end point in Catlettsburg was originally at 23rd and Center Streets, near Grandview Manor. In 1971, the former ending was truncated to its present location due to the re-routing of U.S. 23 around downtown Catlettsburg. Once inside the city of Ashland, it traverses three different surface streets known as Valley View Drive, Blackburn Avenue and South Belmont Street via a series of turns, mainly within the South Ashland residential district. In Ashland, it crosses 13th Street (US 60) at an intersection locally known as Community.

The entire route is in Boyd County.
