History
SR 306 was first designated in 1932 following its current route between US 322 and SR 283. In 1935, the Aurora-US 422 segment was brought into the state highway system, but as SR 382. By 1937, the two routes were united as SR 306; also at this time, the road connecting Aurora and Hudson was included as the southernmost segment of SR 306. In 1942, the Hudson-Aurora segment was removed from the state highway system, but by this time, the entire route had been paved. No major changes have occurred to the routing since that time.
