Highway 127 was first designated between 1927 and September 1, 1928, by renumbering State Road 19 between Old Alabam and Forum.[4] [5] A second segment of Highway 127 was created from Highway 12 to Beaver Lake on August 25, 1965.[6] The highway was rerouted on June 7, 1995, at the request of the Benton county judge to connect to Highway 12 on both ends, and the former alignment was turned back to county maintenance.[7] The segment of Highway 127 between Garfield and Lost Bridge Village was created on November 23, 1966.[8] The Aurora segment was created on June 28, 1973, pursuant to Act 9 of 1973 by the Arkansas General Assembly.[9] The act directed county judges and legislators to designate up to 12miles of county roads as state highways in each county.[10]
