Iowa Route 83 is a fairly short east-west highway in west-central Iowa. It runs through Avoca, Walnut, Atlantic, and Anita, just barely south of Interstate 80.  The west end in Avoca is at US Route 59, and the east end is at Iowa Route 148 in Anita.

My photo of Iowa Highway 83 shows a guide marker assembly in Walnut, Iowa.  In Walnut, Iowa Route 83 comes from the west and makes a right turn to jog southerly. The signage serving eastbound travelers on Iowa Route 83 explains this.  This photo was taken in February 2024, but another photo of Iowa Route 83 previously took center stage on this page. That older photo is shown below.

My older photo of Iowa Route 83 shows the western end marker, posted alongside a junction marker for US Route 59.  At this intersection in Avoca, Iowa Route 83 meets US Route 59 but refrains from continuing any further west.  This photo was taken in February 2016, as I was driving down Interstate 80, which lies a mile north of the junction shown.
