Getting around

Four named routes. No promised shortcuts.

Green is the Highway 76 corridor. Red, Yellow, and Blue offer alternate approaches and connections—but construction, congestion, and your exact destination decide what works today.

Route descriptions checked August 20, 2026 against Explore Branson’s current Maps & Driving Information page.

Simplified diagram: Red Route runs north of Highway 76 Green Route; Blue connectors sit between them; Yellow Route runs south, with major connector streets crossing the corridor.

Simplified orientation diagram—not to scale and not turn-by-turn navigation.

Green Route

Highway 76 Country Boulevard. The main Entertainment District corridor, lined with theaters, attractions, lodging, and food.

Red Route

Northern parallel approach. Much of it follows Highway 248 and Shepherd of the Hills Expressway. It can help you approach west- and north-side destinations.

Yellow Route

Southern parallel approach. It uses roads including Green Mountain Drive, Wildwood Drive, and Fall Creek Road.

Blue Route

Central alternatives and connectors. Streets between the Green and Red routes can provide another way to approach parts of Highway 76.

Use the colors as orientation, not live navigation.

Alternate routes are not guaranteed shortcuts. Road work, event traffic, access restrictions, and recommended approaches change. Confirm directions shortly before departure and follow posted signs.

Diagram in words

Imagine Highway 76—the Green Route—as the center horizontal line. The Red Route runs roughly parallel to its north along Highway 248 and Shepherd of the Hills Expressway. The Yellow Route runs roughly parallel to its south along Green Mountain Drive, Wildwood Drive, and Fall Creek Road. The Blue Route is a set of central alternatives and connectors between Green and Red. Gretna Road, Roark Valley Road, and Shepherd of the Hills Expressway connect parts of the network.
