History
Prior to the construction of the Dr. Robert R. Martin By-Pass, an extension of the Eastern By-Pass around eastern and northern Richmond, KY 876 ended at KY 52 (East Main Street). When the new By-Pass opened, US 25 and US 421 were routed onto the new northern bypass between KY 876 and I-75 exit 90, and KY 876 was truncated to the intersection with US 25/US 421.
