History

Route 204 has been around unofficially for many decades and for many years was the main road between Truro and Amherst. Before the current alignment of Highway 104 was constructed the route was part of the Trans Canada Highway.

Before the 1960s, the section of Route 204 from Oxford to Streets Ridge was designated as Trunk 4.
