History
SR 228 was established in 1943 along an alignment from an indistinguishable point in Ellaville to an intersection with SR 195 in Andersonville. This is due to the fact that SR 195 used to exist north of Andersonville. In 1953, the western half of the road was paved. By 1957, the rest of the road was paved. In 1982, when SR 195 was decommissioned north of Andersonville, the former portion of SR 195 from just northwest of Andersonville southeast into the city was redesignated as part of SR 228.

, SR 228 used to continue further west into Ellaville along Andersonville Road. The western terminus of SR 228 was in downtown Ellaville at US 19/SR 3 but was moved east to its current location by 2012 when a new four-lane alignment of US 19/SR 3 east of the town opened.
