History[]
The section of Highway 135 north of Paragould was formerly Arkansas Highway 1W. Highway 1 was split into two directional routings in 1941, and when AR 1E became AR 1 in 1955, the former AR 1W from Paragould to Corning was designated Highway 135. The section south of Highway 18 was formerly Arkansas Highway 143, which became part of Arkansas Highway 135 in 1955. Arkansas Highway 143 has since been reassigned to another route.
