History

The first appearance of Arkansas Highway 219 on the state highway map is the January 1966 edition, which numbers a gravel road from Ozark north to an area around Mountain Top as AR 219. The route was paved around 1963, and again most recently in 1975. The shorter route was added to the state highway system in 1966. The route has not been repaved or reconstructed since its addition to the state highway system.
