I’ve lived in mass my whole life and I’ve never heard of it, is it a new highway?

No it's an old highway. 95 and 128 are the same highway for most of 128's length. In/near Peabody, the two diverge, with 95 going north to Canada, and 128 going northeast to Gloucester.

That stretch of highway that's 128 and 95 used to exclusively be 128 until, I think 1997. Signage for 128 has been replaced with signage for 95 over time so people older than a certain age often call that highway 128 and people under a certain age often call it 95.
