History
Iowa 38 (No. 38) is an original state highway when the system was created in 1920. It extended from Primary Road No. 2 and No. 20 in Muscatine north to No. 61 between Anamosa and Wyoming.[2] When the U.S. Highway System was created in 1926, the terminal roads of Iowa 38 were renumbered to Iowa 22 at Muscatine and Iowa 117 in Jones County.[3] Throughout the 1930s, the highway was extended several times. Firstly, in 1932, it was extended over Iowa 117 for a couple miles and then north as a stub route to Center Junction.[4] Three years later, it was again extended north to U.S. Highway 151 in Monticello.[5] Finally on May 11, 1938, it absorbed all of Iowa 113, which had connected Monticello to Iowa 10 near Edgewood.[6]
