History

FM 118 was designated on January 11, 1945 from US 67 east of Greenville at Ardis Heights north 2.5 miles to SH 24 northeast of Greenville. On June 25, 1945, the road was extended to Jacobia. On February 21, 1946, the SH 24-US 67 section was cancelled and redesignated as State Highway 355, but this section became part of FM 118 again on July 1, 1947. The final change was on January 16, 1953, when FM 118 was extended to FM 512 in South Sulphur and a spur connection in Jacobia was added.
On June 21, 2015, the bridge that crosses the South Sulphur River collapsed because of flooding.
