Rte 225From Route 101 near Santa Barbara to near the Santa Barbara Central Business District.

Note: The CTC is permitted to relinquish the entirety of this route within the jurisdiction of the city of Santa Barbara, between the Route 101/Route 225 separation at Las Positas Road and the Castillo Street interchange with Route 101, on terms and conditions that the commission finds to be in the best interests of the state.

In 1963, this route was defined as “Route 101 near Santa Barbara to Route 101 near Montecito via the coast.”

In 1998, AB 2132, Chapter 877, signed September 26, 1998 truncated the route to be "Route 101 near Santa Barbara to Route 101 near the Santa Barbara Central Business District Montecito via the coast". Now, rather than following Cabrillo Boulevard along the beach area, the route turns left at Castillo Street and ends at Castillo and US 101.

In 2011, AB 957 (Chapter 536, 10/7/2011) permitted the CTC to "relinquish to the City of Santa Barbara the entire Route 225 within the jurisdiction of the city, between the Route 101/Route 225 separation at Las Positas Road and the Castillo Street interchange with Route 101, on terms and conditions that the commission finds to be in the best interests of the state, if the department and the city enter into an agreement providing for that relinquishment. The following conditions shall apply upon relinquishment: (1) The relinquishment shall become effective on the date following the county recorder's recordation of the relinquishment resolution containing the commission's approval of the terms and conditions of the relinquishment. (2) On and after the effective date of the relinquishment, Route 225 shall cease to be a state highway and shall be ineligible for future adoption under Section 81.

In December 2013, the CTC authorized relinquishment of right of way in the city of Santa Barbara on Route 225 between the Route 101/Route 225 separation at Las Positas Road and the Castillo Street interchange with Route 101, under terms and conditions as stated in the relinquishment agreement dated May 21, 2013, determined to be in the best interest of the State. Authorized by Chapter 536, Statutes of 2011, which amended Section 525 of the Streets and Highways Code.

Unconstructed Post the December 2013 relinquishment, this becomes an unconstructed route as it appears the entirety of the route has been deleted. Caltrans could define a new route with the same endpoints until the legislative definition is updated. Note: These pages won't show the route as unconstructed, however, as signage likely remains.
