[edit] Route description
Along its path, SR 201 passes through the eastern portion of Montgomery County and the eastern portion of Miami County. There are segments of SR 201 that are included as a part of the National Highway System (NHS). The NHS is a network of highways that are identified as being most important for the economy, mobility and defense of the nation.[4][5]
SR 201 begins in downtown Dayton, just a block from where SR 202 begins. The route starts as Valley Street in Dayton, running northward along the Mad River. SR 201 follows Valley Street until the intersection with Brandt Pike and then follows Brandt Pike northward toward Huber Heights. SR 201 remains Brandt Pike through Huber Heights until it reaches the unincorporated community of Brandt, Ohio, in Miami County. From there it loses its alternative name and continues northward, ending near Casstown, Ohio, at the intersection with SR 55.
