North Carolina Highway 114 (NC 114) is a 2.6-mile-long (4.2 km) primary state highway in the U.S. state of North Carolina. It travels north–south from Interstate 40 (I-40) south of Drexel to Oakland Avenue, north of the central business district of Drexel. NC 114 provides an important link between Drexel and U.S. Route 70 (US 70) and I-40. It is primarily a two-lane undivided roadway running through rural Burke County and the town of Drexel.
Established around 1930, NC 114 originally travelled from US 70 and NC 10 to Oakland Avenue in Drexel. US 64 connected with NC 114 by 1933, as it was extended east from Chattanooga, Tennessee in concurrency with US 70. NC 10 was removed from US 70 by 1935 and US 64 was rerouted in 1988, ending NC 114's connection with those highways. The roadway was extended south to I-40 in 1976, and has remained unchanged.
