The Board of County Commissioners adopted the project on November 17, 2008.
The two mile phase of CR 70 between CR 19 and CR 15 was widened and repaved in 2019. Design of a next phase of improvements is now underway in 2020. This phase includes three miles of roadway widening, reconstruction, and paving of the existing gravel portions of CR 72 from US Highway 287 to beginning of pavement just west of old CR 21. The two-lane roadway will accommodate 6 to 8 feet wide paved shoulders matching the previously reconstructed phases to the east of CR 21. Re-alignment of nearly 500 feet of CR 72 at the US Highway 287 approach is also part of the project.
