Route description

History

When first designated in 1932, State Route 308 was a spur route connecting U.S. Route 36 with the village of Gambier and Kenyon College.[3][4] It would be 1939 before State Route 308 would become a connector route, when State Route 229 was extended east of Mount Vernon, and in the process connected with State Route 308 at its southern terminus.[5][6]
