North Carolina Highway 200 marker

North Carolina Highway 200 (NC 200) is a primary state highway in the state of North Carolina. The highway runs north–south from the South Carolina state line near the community of JAARS, to U.S. Route 601 (US 601) near Concord.

NC 200 traverses 50.1 miles (80.6 km), starting at the South Carolina state line, through the city of Monroe, and the towns of Stanfield and Locust, before ending at US 601 near Concord. For its length, it is a two-lane rural highway except in Monroe where it is a four-lane road from Charlotte Avenue to US 74 and a six-lane divided highway on its concurrency with US 74 and US 601.

Established in 1930, it traveled from Monroe at US 74/NC 20/NC 25/NC 151 south to the South Carolina state line where it changed into SC 93 (renumbered to SC 200 in 1937). Between 1931-36, NC 200 was realigned north of Old Highway Road near Jackson. In 1936, the highway was extended north via Franklin Street, Church Street, Winchester Street, and finally Morgan Mill Road to NC 27 in Locust. In 1942, the highway was extended again north to current terminus at NC 151 (renumbered to US 601 in 1951).
