History

On November 10, 1948, the State Highway Commission agreed to maintain a spur road from US 36 to Ebson as part of the state highway system if Jewell County agreed to construct the road to state standards. The road was accepted by the State Engineer on March 30, 1950, and was designated K-112.

The requirments for accepting the roadway into the State Highway system include a provision that the roadway be surfaced with "sand-gravel" of at least 600 cubic yards per mile. The 1953 map (the earliest map available showing K-112) shows the roadway as hard-surfaced.
