History
In 1959, Legislative Route 279 was designated as a highway from La Jolla to Santee, and incorporated into the California Freeway and Expressway System. In the 1964 state highway renumbering, this became State Route 52. However, SR 52 took over fifty years to be constructed, due to delays in the planning and construction phases.
