Route description

KY 214 begins at an intersection with KY 100 (Center Point Road) east of Tompkinsville, within Monroe. It travels in a southeasterly direction, paralleling Little Sulphur Creek and travels through Otia. Then, it makes a nearly 180-degree turn in the opposite direction and curves to the northeast. It crosses over the Cumberland River on the Cumberland River Ferry. Just south of Gee Cemetery, the highway curves to the south-southeast. It travels through Coe and curves to the east-southeast. It intersects the western terminus of KY 953 (Judio Road). KY 214 then heads to the southeast and travels through Raydure. Then, it curves to the southwest and enters Martinsburg. There, it curves to the east-southeast. KY 214 then curves to the east-northeast, southeast, and briefly to a due south direction, before it heads to the northeast again. It enters Cumberland County just before crossing over Crawford Branch. It curves to the east and crosses over Kettle Creek. It curves to the southeast, paralleling Wells Creek. It then curves to the east-southeast and crosses over Pruitt Branch, where it stops paralleling Wells Creek and begins paralleling Kelly Scott Branch for a short distance. At an intersection with Kelly Scott Branch Road, KY 214 heads to the northeast. It then curves to the east-northeast and then back to the southeast just before it meets its eastern terminus, an intersection with KY 61 (Celina Road).[1]
