History
Route 127 was commissioned in 1965 as a short loop off Route 1 into St. Andrews. (Route 1 at that point followed the eastern shore of the St. Croix River as far as Ghost Road in Bayside, then crossed over to the east side of the peninsula to go north along Passamaquoddy Bay.) When a new alignment of Route 1 opened in 1973 between Waweig and Digdeguash, Route 127 was extended along the bypassed segments of Route 1. It was extended further north to Lawrence Station in 1984 when Route 765 was decommissioned.
