PA 113 was originally designated by 1927 to run from [[Pennsylvania Route 23|PA 23]] and [[Pennsylvania Route 29|PA 29]] in Phoenixville to [[U.S. Route 1 in Pennsylvania|US 1]] and [[Pennsylvania Route 101|PA 101]] in [[Penndel, Pennsylvania|Penndel]]. By 1930, PA 113 was extended from Phoenixville southwest to [[U.S. Route 30 in Pennsylvania|US 30]] in Downingtown and south from Penndel to [[U.S. Route 13 in Pennsylvania|US 13]] in [[Eddington, Pennsylvania|Eddington]]. The route was moved to its current alignment between Phoenixville and [[Rahns, Pennsylvania|Rahns]] in 1937, switching routes with PA 29. In 1946, PA 113 was realigned at [[Kulps Corner, Pennsylvania|Kulps Corner]] to head to is current northern terminus, replacing part of [[Pennsylvania Route 413|PA 413]]. The former PA 113 between Kulps Corner and Eddington became [[Pennsylvania Route 313|PA 313]], [[U.S. Route 202 in Pennsylvania|US 202]], PA 413, [[Pennsylvania Route 513|PA 513]], and Bensalem Boulevard. PA 113 was realigned to bypass [[Kimberton, Pennsylvania|Kimberton]] in the 1970s and Harleysville in the 1980s. In 2009, the new Gay Street Bridge over the [[French Creek (Schuylkill River)|French Creek]] was opened, replacing a bridge that was built in 1924.
