History

NC 113 was established in 1930 as a primary new routing from Toluca to Newton. In late 1934, it was renumbered to NC 73 (replaced in 1940 by the current NC 10). NC 113 returned in 1937 as a renumbered route through Halifax when US 301 was rerouted to bypass the city. It was renumbered, around 1960, as US 301A (today as US 301 Business).[2]

The third, and current, NC 113 was established in 1964, which was extended further north in 1977 to its current terminus after NC 93 was also rerouted further north.[2]
