Kentucky Route 176

The highway starts in downtown Greenville, the Muhlenberg County seat, at the public square, where U.S. Route 62 (US 62) and KY 181 intersect. KY 176 then heads eastward to Drakesboro, where it crosses US 431/KY 70. KY 176's eastern terminus is at the Tennessee Valley Authority's Paradise Combined Cycle Plant, where the old town of Paradise once stood. Rockport–Paradise Road is the last intersection the highway has.

Before the construction of the TVA-operated Paradise Fossil Plant, KY 176 went straight through the then-existing town of Paradise, and crossed the Green River into Ohio County via a ferry boat. KY 176 then turned to end with another junction with US 62 just east of Rockport, Kentucky. The section of road east of the river has long since been turned over to the maintenance of the Ohio County Road Department in 1964.^[2]

The entire route is in Muhlenberg County.
