Route 106 follows the original routing of Route 2 until the 1950s, when an entirely new limited-access route was constructed (mainly to bypass Moncton). The former route became Route 2A, but it was renumbered Route 6 in 1965. The 106 number was adopted in 1984 during a reclassification of provincial highways. Route 106 was extended west to Three Rivers from its former end at River Glade in 1997 when another section of the Trans-Canada Highway was bypassed. Former routes
There have been two highways formerly numbered Route 106 in New Brunswick. The first Route 106 followed the west bank of the Saint John River between Hartland and Perth-Andover between 1965 and 1968, when the Florenceville Bridge opened as part of the Trans-Canada Highway project. The former Route 106 is now part of Route 130 north of Florenceville, and Route 103 south of Florenceville. The second Route 106 followed the Broad Road from Oromocto to Route 7 at Geary between 1976 and 1984. This route, a former alignment of Route 7, became part of Route 660, but is no longer numbered.
