History:

Circa 2004, new signs on I-95 started mentioning Route 127. Photo taken on I-95 northbound, May 2006, by Kurumi.

In the 1920s, State Highway 127 followed the old Route 130 west of US 7 in Kent.

The modern Route 127, commissioned in 1932, originally had its south end at US 1, for a length of 5.47 miles. In 1978, its official south end was Huntington Turnpike (SR 730), for a length of 4.69 miles. I don't know when it was extended south to Route 130.

Until about 2004, Route 127 appeared not to be signed south of US 1. A photo once available at Gribblenation showed Route 127 signed there only to the north. During the recent construction on I-95 in the area, new signs were added, now mentioning Route 127 (see photo).
