History

edit

SR 245 was first designated in 1962. The original routing of the highway consisted of the same route as today.[2][3] Prior to June 1963, SR 245 was signed as SR 275.[3] The route was renumbered at that time due to Ohio renumbering state highways sharing the same number as Interstate highways;[3] Interstate 275 forced the renumbering of SR 275.
