Source-derived summary

State Route 105 (SR 105) is an east–west state highway in the northwestern portion of the U.S. state of Ohio. Its western terminus is at an interchange with Interstate 75 in Bowling Green that doubles as the southern terminus of State Route 64, and its eastern terminus is at State Route 19 in Oak Harbor. For its final 0.4 miles (0.64 km), the route overlaps State Route 163 which continues east.

History

Its western terminus was at then SR 34, later became U.S. Route 6 (US 6). The entire route was paved by 1934. Between 1967 and 1969, it was extended west to current western terminus, along the former US 6 alignment.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
