Route description

SR 373 begins in Maury County at an intersection with SR 50 a few miles southeast of Columbia. It heads south as Culleoka Highway through farmland as a two-lane highway to pass through Culleoka, where it makes a sharp turn to the east. The highway winds its way east through more hilly terrain for a few miles to cross into Marshall County.{{cite map|url=https://www.tn.gov/content/dam/tn/tdot/maps/county-maps-(us-shields)/h-m/Maury%20County.pdf|title=Maury County road map|author=Tennessee Department of Transportation|publisher = Tennessee Department of Transportation|access-date=November 9, 2019}}{{full citation needed|date=May 2021}} SR 373 winds its way through rural hilly countryside for several more miles as Mooresville Highway, where it has an interchange with I-65 (Exit 32) and widens to a four-lane undivided highway, before entering Lewisburg at an intersection with SR 417 (W Ellington Parkway). The highway becomes W Commerce Street and passes through neighborhoods for several miles before entering downtown. SR 373 then comes to an end at the courthouse square at an intersection with US 31A Business/US 431 Business/SR 11/SR 50 (2nd Avenue/E Commerce Street).{{cite map|url=https://www.tn.gov/content/dam/tn/tdot/maps/county-maps-(us-shields)/h-m/Marshall%20County.pdf|title=Marshall County road map|author=Tennessee Department of Transportation|publisher =Tennessee Department of Transportation|access-date=November 9, 2019}}{{full citation needed|date=May 2021}}{{cite map|url=https://www.tn.gov/content/dam/tn/tdot/maps/city-maps/city-maps-l-o/map-city-lewisburg.pdf|title=Map of Lewisburg, Tennessee|author=Tennessee Department of Transportation|publisher = Tennessee Department of Transportation|access-date=November 10, 2019}}{{full citation needed|date=May 2021}}
