Upon gazettal, on 7 August 1928, State Highway No. 10 passed along the same alignment through Bonville as it does today. Being so close to the major regional centre of Coffs Harbour it has always attracted higher-than-average traffic volumes and thus demands a high standard of construction.
Following only minor improvements during the Depression, partly due to the lack of funds and partly due to the already reasonable state of the road, the Department of Main Roads delayed major reconstruction until after World War 2. A major reconstruction programme was commenced in 1946, which stretched all the way between Coffs Harbour and Raleigh. Involving only small realignments and the provision of a dust-free surface, the reconstruction programme through Bonville was completed in early 1949. Other large deviations at Repton and Boambee, also constructed as part of the same programme, were not completed until mid-1950.
Since then, no major changes have been made to the alignment of the highway through Bonville. In the early 1990s several overtaking lanes were added, as well as minor widening to allow protected right turn bays to be provided for turning traffic.
Cache has been placed at the intersection of Gleniffer Road and Pine Creek Way and is a black round container.
