The direct predecessors of N70 are Highway 2 from
Upon the ratification of the Asian Highway Network by the Philippines in 2007, the highway's segment from Palo to Ormoc was later made part of the Pan-Philippine Highway, particularly its spur in Visayas. The highway network connecting Palo and Mahaplag via the western coast of Leyte was later designated by the Department of Public Works and Highways as N70. The route is signposted from Palo to Ormoc but since the non-AH26 section of the route does not have its own route markers, it is not signposted from Ormoc to Mahaplag.
