Maine State Route 127 is a highway running between Dresden and Georgetown.

Route description

The route starts to the southwest of Georgetown, and goes in that general direction before turning north towards Arrowsic. Passing through Arrowsic, the route then passes through Woolwich and Dresden before terminating at SR 27.[2]

History

SR 127 was originally created in 1925 and ran between Gardiner and Wiscasset. The following year, that route became SR 27, and SR 127 was moved to its current route. SR 127 originally ran to the shoreline, but in 2003, it was truncated to a rural intersection.<ref name="floodgap"/>
