In 1934, a loop at Buckroe Beach was added to SR 169, running north on Resort Boulevard, west on Buckroe Avenue, and south on Mallory Street. In addition to this loop, SR 169 was extended north and west from Buckroe Beach in 1966, running west on State Route 351 (Pembroke Avenue) and then replacing part of what had been State Route 167 on Old Buckroe Road and Fox Hill Road, ending at State Route 278 (King Street) just north of U.S. Route 258 (Mercury Boulevard). The loop was removed in 1975, leaving only the Mallory Street-Pembroke Alignment at Buckroe Beach. Fox Hill Road has since been realigned to meet US 258 east of SR 278.
