History: NC 225 appeared in summer 1998 [per James Kilbourne e-mail to Matt Steffora] running from US 25 Exit 1 on Bob's Creek Rd over to Old US 25, then north back to US 25 Exit 5 Zirconia. Then NC 225 replaced SR 1891 on the expressway connection over to I-26.
Around 2004, NC 225 was rerouted into Hendersonville to end at US 25 Business (old US 176 endpoint), replacing what had been US 25. The connector out to I-26 became part of US 25.
