Route History

The current PTH 27 has been in existence since around 1967.

Prior to this, PTH 27, while still a short trunk highway, was located in the southwest part of the province. It was an unpaved highway which provided access to Rapid City between PTH 10 at Tremaine and PTH 16 (then known as PTH 4) at Basswood. The highway followed what is now PTH 24 and PR 270. The original length of PTH 27 was 29 km (18 mi).

PTH 27 was shortened to 23 km (14 mi) in 1956 when the section between Tremaine and Rapid City was renumbered to its current PTH 24 designation.
