History
editSR 204 was designated in 1923 on what was formerly SR 470 (which existed since 1915[3]) between SR 79 (current SR 37) and SR 40, US 22's predecessor.[4][5] In 1937, SR 204 was extended west along local roads and SR 386 to SR 256.[6][7] Since then, no major, functional changes have occurred to the routing.[8]

State Route 204A
edit
State Route 204A is a 0.49-mile[1] alternate route connecting I-70 with SR 204 in Pickerington. Route 204A runs south from I-70 to SR 204, connecting the two parallel roads. Route 204A also serves as the off ramp for I-70 until it becomes Taylor Road and intersects SR 204. A No Outlet sign is posted because the I-70 off ramp is southbound only and there is no access northbound to I-70.
