History

Highway 107 was authorized in 1933 between Grasston and Brook Park.^[1]

Present day Highway 107 was originally numbered Highway 65 between Braham and Grasston from 1934 to 1942. Nearby Highway 65 was built on a new alignment circa 1942 and this old section of 65 between Braham and Grasston was renumbered 107 as a southerly extension of the existing Highway 107.^[4]

All of Highway 107 was paved by 1960.^[4]
