[edit] Route description
SH-34 begins at SH-34 six miles (10 km) northeast of Eldorado. Heading north, it intersects US-62 just east of Duke. Continuing north, SH-34 joins US-283 in Mangum, seat of Greer County.
Two miles (3 km) north of Mangum, SH-9 joins at for a four-mile (6 km) concurrency with SH-34 and US-283.
Nine miles (14 km) north of Mangum, SH-34B branches off to the west, connecting to the town of Brinkman, and four miles (6 km) later, SH-34A branches off to the west to the town of Willow.
US-283 splits off to the northwest two miles (3 km) after that, and SH-34 continues north to intersect with SH-55 in Carter ten miles later. In another five miles (8 km), SH-34 crosses SH-152, and continues on to join up with I-40, west of Elk City.
SH-34 shares a concurrency with I-40 for ten miles, exiting the Interstate east of Elk City and heading back to the north. SH-73's western terminus is at SH-34 at nine miles (14 km) north of I-40, and SH-34 crosses SH-33 just east of Hammon, six miles (10 km) after that.
SH-34 crosses SH-47 two miles (3 km) south of Leedey, and crosses the Canadian River about four miles (6 km) south of Camargo. Just east of Vici, SH-34 joins US-60 and SH-51 for a one-mile (1.6 km) concurrency, then SH-34 heads north again at Vici.
The highway passes through Sharon about nine miles (14 km) north of Vici, then joins US-183/US-270/SH-3 four miles (6 km) south of Woodward. At Woodward, SH-34 again sets off to the north alone, and right after crossing the North Canadian River, SH-34C branches to the east about two miles (3 km) north of Woodward, connecting to Boiling Springs State Park.
SH-34 joins US-64 in far eastern Harper County for a four-mile (6 km) concurrency to the east, crossing the Cimarron River 17 miles (27 km) east of Buffalo. The highway then turns back to the north, where it is 10 miles (20 km) to its terminus at the Kansas state line.
