State Road 276 (SR 276) is a state road in the panhandle of Florida. It runs west to east from former State Road 167 (now CR 167) into U.S. Route 90 (US 90) in and around Marianna entirely within Jackson County, although a bi-county extension exists between State Road 277 (SR 277) southwest of Chipley in Washington County that runs south then east into CR 167. Most of the road is a two-lane undivided highway, with exceptions in the vicinity of Interstate 10, and if you count the bi-county portion, the overlapped segment with U.S. 231 where it changes from a four-lane undivided highway to a four-lane divided highway between Alford and Steele City.
The county segment that was once part of State Road 276 begins in Washington County at State Road 277 as Piney Grove Road. This section of the road runs south and north, while the rest of the road runs east and west. The first intersection after its northern and western terminus is a local street name Duncan Community Road. Much of the atmosphere is rural and agricultural with both active and abandoned farmland, occasionally obstructed or interrupted by small forests. Piney Grove Road ends at Clayton Road, which is the eastern terminus of County Road 276A (see below), and CR 276 turns at its intended direction for the first time, with the same rural atmosphere. The first intersection it faces here is Duncan Community Road, and then a far more important one with State Road 77. Just east of there, the road makes a sharp left curve to the north at Ostrich Lane which continues to the east, then turns east again between Falling Waters Road and Old Church Road. The route runs past four more intersections before Clayton Road ends at CR 273(Orange Hill Road), where an abandoned gas station can be found on the northwest corner, but CR 276 turns south onto a brief concurrency with CR 273, where it passes by a firehouse and then returns to the east onto Alford Highway, which for some reason isn't marked.
