Getting around

The Strip and the routes around it.

Highway 76 Country Boulevard is the Strip. Red, Yellow, and Blue are Branson’s color-coded routes.

Not-to-scale diagram: The Strip, Highway 76, runs through the center. Red Route is north, Yellow Route is south, and Blue Route connects between Red and the Strip.

An orientation diagram, not turn-by-turn navigation. The Strip is not a color-coded route.

The Strip

Highway 76 Country Boulevard. This is the main address spine for the Entertainment District. Choose “The Strip” in the directory when the listing is on W 76 Country Blvd—not because it is a color-coded route.

Red Route

North of the Strip. Much of this corridor follows Highway 248, known in town as Shepherd of the Hills Expressway. Use it to identify north-side listings and as a parallel approach when your current directions call for it.

Yellow Route

South of the Strip. It follows Green Mountain Drive, Wildwood Drive, and Fall Creek Road. Use it for south-side restaurants, lodging, and attractions that are nearby but not actually on Highway 76.

Blue Route

Between Red and the Strip. Blue is an east–west connection that begins and ends on the Entertainment District, with cross streets linking back to the Strip. It is best understood as a connector, not a separate parallel corridor.

Use the labels to orient yourself—not as a promise of a faster drive.

Road work, show traffic, access restrictions, and your destination’s entrance all matter. Check a current map shortly before leaving and follow posted signs.
