Route description
SR 5's southern terminus is at SR 22, where SR 5 heads north toward Huntington. SR 5 passes through an intersection with State Road 18 and then through the town of Van Buren. SR 5 passes over Interstate 69 (I-69) and then has a concurrency with State Road 218. SR 5 and SR 218 travel east to Warren. Soon after the concurrency begins, SR 5 and SR 218 have an interchange with I-69. In Warren SR 218 turns southeast and SR 5 turns northwest. North of Warren SR 5 has another interchange with I-69. SR 5 heads toward Huntington, passing through intersection with State Road 124. In southeast Huntington SR 5 and U.S. Route 224 (US 224) have a concurrency. In Huntington US 224/SR 5 are on one-way streets with west US 224/north SR 5 on Warren Street and east US 224/south SR 5 on Cherry Street. US 224 and SR 5 heads northwest out of Huntington, then US 224 and SR 5 have an intersection with U.S. Route 24/State Road 9. This intersection is the western terminus of US 224.
SR 5 heads northwest, just outside Huntington SR 5 has an intersection with the eastern terminus of State Road 16. SR 5 heads north until South Whitley. In South Whitley SR 5 has a concurrency with State Road 14 and an intersection with the southern terminus of State Road 205. SR 5 heads north out of South Whitley towards Larwill. In Larwill SR 5 has an intersection with U.S. Route 30. SR 5 heads north from Larwill towards Liigonier, passing through Indian Village and Cromwell. South of Ligonier, SR 5 and US 33 have a concurrency that ends at US 6. From US 6, SR 5 heads north, passing through the downtown area of Ligonier. The road then leaves the downtown of Ligonier heading north, passing over the Elkhart River on a bridge and then under the Norfolk Southern Railway tracks. The route makes a sharp curve heading due east, before curving due north once again. The highway heads north until Shipshewana where SR 5 has an intersection with US 20, before heading into downtown Shipshewana. North of Shipshewana, SR 5 heads due north toward Michigan. The northern terminus of SR 5 is at SR 120.[2]
History
Between 1917 and 1920 SR 5 had a route that went from Vincennes to Mitchell. Following the today's route of U.S. Route 150, U.S. Route 50, and State Road 60. Then between 1920 and 1926 SR 5 went from Vincennes to New Albany following the today's route of US 150.
Another SR 5 was sign between 1927 and sometime in the 1930s, this route went from Montpelier northwest to Akron.
Then the route was changed to the current route of SR 5 from Warren to SR 120. In 1985 SR 5 was route to Upland on the Old State Road 221. The north terminus was at the Michigan State Line at one point, passing through Scott.
