History

The route was added the Arizona's state highway system in 1955, when a county road was given rights to the Arizona Department of Transportation.[3] The highway was paved from Willcox southeast for approximately four miles in 1960[4] before being moved a year later.[5] The highway was then re-extended into the city of Willcox in 1968[6] and formally established as a state highway in 1970, when the definition of a state highway was refined in 1970.[7] Since then, there have been no routing changes on SR 186.
