US 218 has been relocated from the Johnson‑Washington County line north and northwest to an interchange with Interstate 80 and Interstate 380 in Johnson County. The final segment from the Indian Hills Interchange northwesterly to a junction with Interstate 380 was opened to traffic on June 26, 1985, and was functionally classified under the State Functional Classification System on November 25, 1986. The old portion of US 218 from the Johnson‑Washington County line north to a junction with Unsigned Iowa 921 in the SE ¼ of Section 28‑T79N‑R6W should be re-designated as Unsigned Iowa 923 and its description included in the Primary Road System to reflect this re-designation.
