History
SR 110 was originally signed in 1923. At that time SR 110 ran along its current route from Napoleon to Grand Rapids and along current SR 65 from Grand Rapids to Perrysburg.The current route of SR 110 was paved by 1926. In 1927, SR 110 was moved to run along the north bank of the Maumee River from Napoleon to Grand Rapids, with US 24 taking the south bank of the river. In 1931, its eastern terminus was moved to Grand Rapids. In 1942, the eastern terminus was extended to Bowling Green, replacing SR 184. Also in that year the route was flipped US 24, once again putting SR 110 on the south banks of the Maumee. In 1958, SR 110 was truncated to its current terminus, leaving the road between SR 65 and SR 64 unnumbered. No significant changes have taken place to this state route since 1958.
