• 1937 – Extended to its current southern terminus along a previously unnumbered road from 2 miles (3.2 km) south of Bay View to Bellevue, and along a previous alignment of State Route 296 from Bellevue to 7 miles (11 km) south of Bellevue^[2].
• 1969 – Extended to its current northern terminus along State Route 2’s alignment from Bay View to Danbury (about 5 miles (8.0 km) west-southwest of Marblehead) and along the alignment of former State Route 240 from Danbury to the current northern terminus^[3].
