History

The road from Lynndyl south to Oak City was originally designated as State Route 126 in 1931, and renumbered to State Route 125 in 1933. In 1953, the route was extended from its southern terminus in Oak City, taking over the western portion of Utah State Route 135 from Oak City to Delta. In addition, the original portion of the highway from Oak City north to Lynndyl was rerouted instead to run north to Leamington, some to the east, which reflects the current alignment of the route.
