History

In 1973, the Arkansas General Assembly passed Act 9 of 1973. The act directed county judges and legislators to designate up to 12 miles (19 km) of county roads as state highways in each county. [3] Highway 156 was designated along Gulley Road in Washington County in accordance with the act by the Arkansas State Highway Commission on June 28, 1973. [1] It was deleted at the request of the Washington County Judge in exchange for designation of a county road as Highway 74 near Brentwood. [2]
