History
The SR 676 designation was established in 1937. It has utilized the same routing between SR 555 near Chesterhill and SR 7 near Marietta throughout its history. Initially, the entire length of SR 676 was a gravel roadway. In 1947, the easternmost stretch of SR 676 between County Road 183 (CR 183) and SR 7 was paved. Four years later, the highway was hard-surfaced between the present SR 339 junction, at the time designated as SR 76, and CR 183. The remaining gravel portion of SR 676 between SR 555 and the current SR 339 intersection was paved by 1961.
