State Highway 127 (SH-127) is a state highway in Delaware County, Oklahoma. It runs from US-59/SH-10/SH-20 in Jay, through the community of Zena, and ends at US-59/SH-10 north of Jay. Its total length is 13.08 miles (21.05 km) It has no lettered spur routes.
SH-127 was established as a state highway in the late 1950s. Initially, it was an all-gravel route. By the mid-1970s, the highway had been upgraded to a paved road.
SH-127 begins in downtown Jay at the intersection of South Main Street (US-59/SH-10/SH-20) and South 5th Street. From this point, SH-127 eastbound proceeds north along South 5th Street to Cherokee Street, where it turns west. It turns back to the north along North 14th Street, which it follows out of Jay. Eastbound SH-127 then turns northwest, passing through a landform known as Muskrat Hollow. The highway then turns to the north, emerging into Courthouse Prairie. It makes a sharp turn to the east, and then to the north, before reaching Zena. It heads generally east from Zena, with four sharp curves between the unincorporated place and the highway's eastern terminus. SH-127 ends at US-59/SH-10 between Jay and Grove. While SH-127 is just over 13 miles (21 km) long, the distance between its two termini along US-59/SH-10 is only 5.6 miles (9.0 km).
