Notes and History |
ME 114 as originally designated in 1925 ran between Mosher Corner near Gorham
at NEI 25 (now ME 25) and Naples at NEI 18 (now US 302). This routing was
rather circuitous, up modern ME 237 to the shore of Sebago Lake, then down
what is now ME 35 to the terminus of modern ME 114 in the town of Sebago
Lake and then up modern ME 114 along
the western shore of Sebago Lake to Naples. After the Maine Great Renumbering
the connector northeasterly from Sebago Lake was partially co-signed with
new route ME 35. ME 114 was shifted to its new western
routing to US 1 at the coast, its present-day southern terminus, in
1946-7 using the vacated alignment of ME 207 north of Scarborough;
the connector portion became solely ME 35,
and the remainder of the
alignment from there south to ME 25 became part of new route
ME 95SH (and is now ME 237).
The 2008 Gorham bypass, part of ME 112, is intended to offload some of the
ME 25 and ME 114 traffic from the town centre. It is, however, not part
of ME 114 proper.
