In early July 1927, the
Ohio Department of Highways implemented the system of
United States Numbered Highways that had been approved by the states in late 1926.
[1]
[2] This resulted in the renumbering of many of the
state highways to avoid
overlaps with the new U.S. Routes and numbers used by both classes of route. In addition to the U.S. Routes, a new
State Route 6 was formed, extending
West Virginia Route 6 northwest from the
Ohio River at
Bridgeport to
Norwalk . (Route 6 later became
U.S. Route 250 in both states.)
A number of State Routes -
1 ,
10 ,
13 ,
15 ,
16 ,
31 ,
49 ,
95 ,
112 ,
124 ,
130 ,
160 ,
180 , and
223 - were entirely replaced by U.S. Routes or the new State Route 6. The numbers
6 ,
20 ,
21 ,
22 ,
23 ,
24 ,
25 ,
27 ,
30 ,
40 ,
42 ,
50 ,
52 , and
127 conflicted with new designations, so the State Routes with those numbers were renamed. Some others -
28 ,
48 ,
63 ,
125 ,
126 ,
129 ,
142 , and
263 - were replaced by extensions of other State Routes or new State Routes where not part of a U.S. Route. State Routes
102 and
249 became portions of other routes, but the numbers were reused in the immediate vicinity, 102 for the old alignment of 2 and 249 as part of a three-way route alignment swap in the immediate vicinity. The numbers freed up were reused on other routes.

Later renumberings due to U.S. Routes
State Route 250 was renumbered as
State Route 226 when
U.S. Route 250 was created in 1928 over
State Route 6 .
State Route 223 was renumbered as
State Route 283 when
U.S. Route 223 was created in Ohio in 1930 over
U.S. Route 127 , which was rerouted over part of State Route 108 (see below), and most of
State Route 9 (The rest of which became part of
State Route 15 ).
US 22 extended to Cincinnati over
State Route 10 in 1931.
State Route 6 was renumbered as
State Route 283 , and
State Route 283 was renumbered as
State Route 326 when
U.S. Route 6 extended into Ohio in 1932 over part of
State Route 167 , part of
State Route 7 , part of
State Route 85 , part of
State Route 2 , part of
State Route 34 , and more of
State Route 2 (which was rerouted over the former State Route 108 in 1935) to Indiana.
State Route 36 was renumbered as
State Route 5 when
U.S. Route 36 extended into Ohio in 1932 over all of
State Route 200 , part of
State Route 29 , part of
State Route 55 , following
State Route 4 , part of
State Route 32 , following
State Route 37 (47 until 1932), following
State Route 3 , part of
State Route 95 , part of
State Route 16 , and part of US 250.
State Route 5 was transferred to US 30N (later the new alignment of US 30) (note that US 30S (old alignment of US 30) is now State Route 309).
State Route 62 was renumbered as
State Route 19 when
U.S. Route 62 extended into Ohio in 1932 over part of
State Route 38 to
Washington Court House , following
State Route 3 , and all of
State Route 19 .
State Route 68 was renumbered as
State Route 47 when
U.S. Route 68 extended into Ohio in 1933 over all of
State Route 10 which overlapped the following (these overlaps were removed): all of
State Route 221 , part of
State Route 53 (the southernmost section (separated by US 68) was renumbered as
State Route 221 ), part of
State Route 31 , and part of US 25.
State Route 224 was renumbered as
State Route 177 when
U.S. Route 224 was created in 1933 over
State Route 17 .
State Route 35 was renumbered as
State Route 9 when
U.S. Route 35 was created in 1934 over
State Route 11 (which was eliminated the next year).
State Route 33 was renumbered as
State Route 108 when
U.S. Route 33 was created in 1937 over part of
State Route 54 , most of
State Route 32 (the remainder became part of
State Route 54 , but this section became part of
State Route 29 by 1939), and part of
State Route 31 .
