History
Previous route
SH 188 was previously designated on November 30, 1932, as a connector route between then-SH 5 and Roxton.[2] This route was canceled on April 29, 1942, and was replaced by FM 38.
Current route
SH 188 was designated on December 22, 1992, replacing part of FM 881 and part of FM 1069, of which SH 188 was concurrent with. On June 29, 1993, SH 188 was extended 1.8 miles (2.9 km) over another part of FM 1069, canceling the section of FM 1069 east of the junction with SH 188, transferring it to SH 188, and the remainder of FM 881 was redesignated as part of FM 1069.[1]
