SR 71 begins at an intersection with US 41/US 76/SR 3 in Dalton as the Cleveland Highway. South of the intersection, the roadway continues as North Glenwood Avenue. The route briefly heads north out of the city. It then turns northeast before heading north for the rest of its routing. In Varnell is an intersection with SR 2. About two miles before the Tennessee State Line, the route narrows to two lanes. At the state line, SR 71 meets its northern terminus continuing into Bradley County towards Cleveland as Tennessee State Route 60.[1]
