A portion of the gravel road that later became Highway 46 had been constructed by the late 1930s. Construction of Highway 63 between Atmore and Fort McMurray began in 1962. In the late-1970s, in conjunction with new highways being constructed between Athabasca and Boyle as well as between Lac La Biche and Cold [Lake, Alberta|Cold Lake], the east-west section between Atmore and Lac La Biche was renumbered to Highway 55. The north-south section between Radway and Boyle became part of Highway 63, while a concurrency with Highways 55 & 63 was established between Boyle and Atmore.'''Replacement highways'''
