Histori
As of June 1, 2009, the route between US 98 (Back Beach Road) in Panama City Beach and SR 20 at Ebro is being expanded into four lines. The second bridge over the Bay of Intracoastal Waterway in West Bay has been completed and is now open making four complete tracks for about 5 miles (8.0 km) stretching from US 98 to the north to the junction of SR 79 and SR 388 in the West Bay. The northern part of this completed stretching construction continues to the point north of the Ebro Greyhound Racetrack. No construction begins north of this point to the Alabama state line.
