The route was extended north to Mountainburg in the late 1990s on an all-new alignment with the route being completed to Bella Vista in January 1999.

It was renumbered to 130 to prevent confusion with Interstate 30 in 1958, and the segment between North Little Rock and Stuttgart was replaced by an extension of US 165 in 1981, producing the current alignment. Highway 130 has one spur route in Almyra, and a former alternate route in DeWitt that was designated but never built. The routes are maintained by the Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT).
