Before November 2001, US 275 ran alongside the Union Pacific tracks between Waterloo and Fremont, Nebraska. This routing was decommissioned and replaced by a new freeway segment built as part of a project to connect Fremont via freeway to Omaha
Prior to 1 July 2003, US 275 followed a winding two-lane road between Council Bluffs and Glenwood, Iowa. The segment moved to a multiplex with Interstate 29 that day.
