Wyoming Highway 173 (WYO 173) is a short 1.61-mile (2.6 km) Wyoming state road located in Hot Springs County south of Thermopolis.
Route description
Wyoming Highway 173 begins its west end at US 20/WYO 789 just over a mile and a half south of Thermopolis. Named Buffalo Creek Road, Highway 173 travels southeasterly along the south bank of the Bighorn River. At 1.42 miles, WYO 173 crosses the river via the CQA Four Mile Bridge which is listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places as one of forty bridges throughout Wyoming that illustrate steel truss construction.[2] Two-tenths of a mile later WYO 173 reaches its end at County Route 31 (S. Yellowstone Road). [3][4] CR 31 continues another 1.6 miles south and returns to US 20/WYO 789.
