History
SR 202 was formed in 1964 from the Bothell-Monroe branch of Primary State Highway 15. At this time, almost all of present-day SR 202 was part of SR 522, and present-day SR 522 from Woodinville to Monroe was part of SR 202. In 1970, SR 522 and SR 202 were switched, yielding their present configuration. As a result of this change, SR 202, although a child route of U.S. Route 2, does not currently connect to US 2. Originally it did at the current junction of US 2 and SR 522 in Monroe.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“the future is simply nothing at all. Nothing has happened to the present by becoming past except that fresh slices of existence have been added to the total history of the world. The past is thus as real as the present.”
—Charlie Dunbar Broad (1887–1971)
“History, as an entirety, could only exist in the eyes of an observer outside it and outside the world. History only exists, in the final analysis, for God.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“The second day of July 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more”
—John Adams (1735–1826)
