History
Prior to 1990, SR 177 was two lanes throughout its length. After 1990, the route was expanded into its current form from U.S. 72 – SR 57 to the I-40 – U.S. 64 area. Germantown Road, as it is known locally, has seen significant commercial and residential development starting in the 1990s, including the establishment of restaurants, hotels, planned communities, and the Wolfchase Galleria. North of U.S. 64, however, little new development has taken place.
