      History


      SR 24 was signed as a standalone 24.3/info/route" target="_blank">route until US 70 was commissioned in 24.3/info/tennessee" target="_blank">Tennessee in 1926. At that time, SR 24 became the secret companion 24.3/info/route" target="_blank">route for US 70 Alternate (US 70A), which was re-signed as US 70N in 1939.
      Prior to the 1930s, the routing of SR 24 included most of its present-day alignment from Nashville to Cookeville, but followed a 24.3/info/route" target="_blank">route from Cookeville to a junction with the northern terminus of SR 28 (the present-day hidden designation of US 127) in Static at the Kentucky 24.3/info/state" target="_blank">state line. SR 24 beyond Cookeville was reassigned to its current 24.3/info/route" target="_blank">route to Crossville, and the roadway from Cookeville to Static was re-designated as SR 42, which became a part of the extended SR 111 in 1992.
