Before Interstate 15 was built, truck traffic bound for the Geneva Steel mill used SR-114 to access the mill. However, with the construction of the interstate, heavy truck traffic associated with the steel mill began to use 1600 North to connect to the I-15 interchange. The city of Orem, who maintained the road at the time, felt that this truck traffic was of statewide significance, and as such requested that this portion of 1600 North be added to the state highway system. However, at the time, the Utah Department of Transportation would not accept the road due to its poor condition. After Orem had reconstructed the roadway, it was added to the state highway system in 1969 as SR-241.
