SR 285 was first designated in 1931 as a gravel spur route from SR 265 near Lore City to Senecaville.[3] [4] Within one year, the route was extended north via a dirt road to US 40 in Old Washington.[5] By 1935, the route was extended to its current northern terminus at US 22.[6] SR 285 was extended to its current southern terminus in Caldwell (at the time, US 21) by 1937.[7] No major changes have occurred to the route since that time.
