National Route 5 traces its origin to the {{ill|Sapporo Hondō|ja|札幌本道}}, a road designed by Horace Capron, in 1872. Capron was an American advisor to the Hokkaido Development Commission who was paid to assist in the development of Sapporo as a planned city. The Sapporo Hondō connected Sapporo to Hakodate at the southern end of the Hokkaido where sea connections to the main island of Japan, Honshu, were located. The Sapporo Hondō was completed in 1877.{{cite web|title=開拓を進めた長距離馬車道|url=https://www.hkd.mlit.go.jp/sp/kasen_keikaku/e9fjd600000006hg.html|language=ja|access-date=24 January 2020}}

On 4 December 1952, the Cabinet of Japan designated the Sapporo Hondō as First Class National Highway 5.{{cite web|title=二級国道の路線を指定する政令 (昭和二十八年)|url=https://ja.wikisource.org/wiki/%E4%BA%8C%E7%B4%9A%E5%9B%BD%E9%81%93%E3%81%AE%E8%B7%AF%E7%B7%9A%E3%82%92%E6%8C%87%E5%AE%9A%E3%81%99%E3%82%8B%E6%94%BF%E4%BB%A4_(%E6%98%AD%E5%92%8C%E4%BA%8C%E5%8D%81%E5%85%AB%E5%B9%B4)|language=ja|work=Wikisource|access-date=24 January 2020}} On 1 April 1965, it was reclassified as National Route 5.{{cite web|title=二級国道の路線を指定する政令 (1962年)|url=https://ja.wikisource.org/wiki/%E4%BA%8C%E7%B4%9A%E5%9B%BD%E9%81%93%E3%81%AE%E8%B7%AF%E7%B7%9A%E3%82%92%E6%8C%87%E5%AE%9A%E3%81%99%E3%82%8B%E6%94%BF%E4%BB%A4|language=ja|work=Wikisource|access-date=24 January 2020}}
