Length	3.147 mi (5.065 km)
Existed	1990–present

U.S. Route 169 Business is a 3-mile-long (4.8 km) business route in Fort Dodge, Iowa. The route was established in 1990 along former sections of Iowa Highway 7 (Iowa 7) and U.S. Route 20. Iowa 7 had recently been truncated to its current eastern end at U.S. Route 169 and US 20 had been rerouted onto a new freeway south of Fort Dodge. Since both routes had viaducts over the Des Moines River, officials in Fort Dodge wanted the Iowa Department of Transportation to maintain the bridges. From its creation until 2014, the route was officially known as Iowa Highway 926, but it was only signed as Business US 169. The entire route is in Fort Dodge, Webster County.
