History
Iowa Highway 127 originally went traveled between U.S. Route 75 west of Magnolia, where it now meets Harrison CR L20, and U.S. Route 30 in Logan. This intersection is now where it meets Harrison County Road L20. In 1968, upon completion of Interstate 29 west of Mondamin, US 75 was relocated onto I-29 and Iowa 127 was extended west to the interstate.
