SR 194 was designated in 1925 and originally ran from New England Interstate Route 24 (now US 1) in Easton, a town in Aroostook County, and the Canadian border. In the 1930s, SR 194 was decommissioned, and the border crossing became one of the few in Maine to not have an assigned route number. After the original route was decommissioned, SR 194 was assigned to a short 3.0-mile (4.8 km) road located entirely in the town of Rockport.[1] In 1948, SR 194 was decommissioned again when the road was designated part of the new SR 90. SR 194 was assigned to its current alignment in 1951.[1]
