History
PA 729 was first signed in 1930, but as a short route in Berks County, from PA 100 (Then PA 62) to PA 29. In the mid-1940s, the route was decommissioned, but in 1969, the route number was revived for its current location today. A very small portion of the current route was signed as PA 825 during the 1930s and early 1940s.
