Highway 169 (AR 169, Ark. 169, and Hwy. 169) is a designation for three state highways in Southeast Arkansas. One route of 7.82 miles (12.59 km) begins at Sulphur Springs and runs northeast to Hancock Road in Crossett. A second route of 1.27 miles (2.04 km) in McGehee begins at Highway 4 and runs east to US Highway 65/US Highway 165 (US 65/US 165). A third route of 2.21 miles (3.56 km) begins at US 165 and runs east to Arkansas Post. All routes are maintained by the Arkansas State Highway and Transportation Department (AHTD).
Highway 169 begins at Sulphur Springs in southwestern Ashley County just over 4 miles (6.4 km) from the Louisiana state line. The route runs northeast to Crossett, passing through an industrial section of town. Continuing north, the route intersects and overlaps US 82 at a brief officially designated exception heading west. At Hancock Road, Highway 169 turns north and runs along the west side of a large Georgia-Pacific paper mill. State maintenance ends, with the roadway continuing north at Hancock Road.
