In 1933, Chapter 767 added the route from "[LRN 77] near Prado to [LRN 9] near San Bernardino" to the highway system. In 1935, this was added to the highway code as LRN 193, with the definition "[LRN 77] near Prado to [LRN 9] near San Bernardino". Later that year, Chapter 493 changed the route to: This change truncated both ends of the route. It moved the southern end to the northeast, from roughly the Route 91/Route 71 junction to Route 91/Hamner Av in Corona. The route then ran up Hamner and Milken, originally to US 66 (LRN 9), but that was truncated to US 60 (LRN 19). In 1959, Chapter 1062 relaxed the routing and extended the route to
[LRN 31] near Devore: "[LRN 43] This was the route from present-day Route 91 near Corona to I-215 near Devore. This was the future freeway routing of I-15 (former I-15E). The pre-freeway surface routing of this was former Route 31. |

Route 194 was not defined as part of the initial state signage of routes in 1934. It is unclear what (if any) route was signed as Route 194 between 1934 and 1964.

The portion from Devore to I-10 was accepted as 139(b) non-chargeable milage in 1972 as I-215, changed to I-15E in 1973, changed back to I-215 in 1982 when the route was renumbered as Route 215. The portion between Route 10 and Route 60 was accepted as 139(a) milage in 1973. The portion between Route 60 and Route 15 was accepted as 139(a) milage in 1972.

In 1933, Chapter 767 defined the routes from "The Descanso-Temecula Road near Aguanga to Hemet" and "Hemet to [LRN 19] near Moreno" as part of the state highway system.

In 1963, Route 195 was defined as "Route 86 near Oasis to Route 10 near Shaver's Summit via Pierce Street, Avenue 66, and Mecca." In 1972, Chapter 1216 deleted the portion between Route 111 and Route
10, and added a sunset condition: "Route 86 near Oasis to In 1981, Chapter 292 changed "Freeway" to "Expressway" By 2003, it appears that Route 195 had been decomisssioned, although it still remains on the books, and shields remain up.

The present route was LRN 203, defined in 1935 and the portion of LRN 204 (also defined in 1935) between Pierce Street and Route 111. The 1964-1972 portion of Route 195 was LRN 64, defined in 1919. It appears all were signed as Route 195 by 1963.

A planned expressway (or freeway) alignment for US 199 appears in Compass's Redwood Coast map; this would begin 2 miles north of the current US 101/US 199 interchange, approximately at the intersection of US 101 and Arrowhead Drive, and continue on a meandering path east towards Route 197 at Low Divide Road. (It is unclear what will happen to the southernmost segment of Route 197 between the proposed routing and Route 199 should Route 199 be assigned to this new alignment.) This plan appears to be designed to avoid the Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park altogether (current US 199 cuts through the park). The SAFETEA-LU act, enacted in August 2005 as the reauthorization of TEA-21, provided the following expenditures on or near this route:

This route is unofficially named the "Redwood" Highway. This route was part of the "Winnemucca to the Sea Highway". This
route was developed to establish a continuous, improved all-weather highway
from US-40 (I-80) at Winnemucca, Nevada through Medford, Oregon and on to the
Pacific coast at Crescent City, California. The Winnemucca to the Sea Highway
Association proposed this as US 140, but the number was never assigned.
Instead, it is represented by a combination of route numbers: US 95,
Nevada 140 (originally Nevada 8A), Oregon 140, US 395, Oregon 62, I-5, US 199,
and US 101. Winnemucca, named after a local Paiute chief, began as a bridge
over the Humboldt River for emigrants taking the Applegate-Lassen trail into
northern California and Oregon, and was a major point on the transcontinental
railroad and is a stop over on the ocean-to-ocean highway US-40
(I-80).

The Hardscrabble Bridge, located on Route 199 six miles east of Hiouchi Village in Del Norte County, is officially named the "Viggo "Vic" Meedom Memorial Bridge". Viggo "Vic" Meedom was born in Denmark, and died in October of 1995 at the age of 101. He served Del Norte County as a member of the Crescent City Council, a member of the Del Norte County Board of Supervisors, and an original member of the Del Norte County Local Hospital District Board of Directors. Named by Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 55, Chapter 22, in 1996. Bridge 01-009 over the Smith River, 12 mi E of Crescent City in Del Norte county, is named the "Mary Adams Peacock Memorial Bridge". It was built in 1926 and rebuilt in 1985, and was named in 1932. Del Norte County pioneer school teacher, Mary Adams Peacock (1861-1946), established "Adams' Station" in 1898 and married stage drive Peter Peacock in 1908. Two native plants, Anemone Adamsiana and Valeriana Adamsiana, are named for "Aunt Mary Adams". Bridge 01-016 over the Middle Fork of the Smith River in Del Norte county is named the "Allen Fredrick Lehman Memorial Bridge". It was constructed in 1985, and was named by Assembly Concurrent Resolution 87, Chapter 15, in 1986. Allen Frederick Lehman was a long time resident of Del Norte County and Chairman of the Crescent City Harbor Commission in 1949. Bridge 01-019 over the Middle Fork of the Smith River (19.9 mi NE of Route 101) in Del Norte county is named the "Howard Griffin Memorial Bridge". It was built in 1962, and was named by Senate Concurrent Resolution 13, Chapter 44, in 1963. Howard Francis Griffin, journalist and World War I veteran, founded the "Crescent City American" newspaper in 1926. Tunnel 01-049, near the Oregon State Line in Del Norte county, is named
the "Randolph Collier Tunnel". It was built in 1963, and named by Senate
Concurrent Resolution 74, Chapter 246, in 1961. Senator Randolph Collier was
elected to the State Legislature from 1938-1976 to represent Humboldt,
Mendocino, Sonoma, Lake, Trinity, Del Norte and Siskiyou counties. Although he
was recognized as a leader in many fields of legislation, Collier gained
statewide and national fame in the planning and financing of highways. He was
the principal author of the Collier-Burns Act of 1947 which brought about the
California Highway Plan. The state's highway system served as a model
throughout the nation in that the state assumed responsibility for state
highways in cities. Other improvements came with the Highway Act of 1953 which
stepped up the California freeway program and the adoption of the California
Freeway and Expressway System in 1959. His interest in ecological preservation
introduced legislation to provide proper regulation of California's timberlands
and protection for wild rivers. He worked with local authorities in providing
parks and recreational facilities for the public. The naming of the Randolph
Collier Tunnel through Oregon Mountain was a tribute to its principal advocate.
It provided the first direct route from northwest Nevada to the Pacific Ocean.
It also eliminated the route over the summit's 128 curves and hairpin
switchbacks, and made the highway passable in snowy weather. Senate committees
on which Collier had served include Governmental Efficiency, Finance, Revenue
and Taxation, Insurance and Finance Institutions, and Transportation. This route also has the following Safety Roadside Rest Areas:
