236-670: A decade later. Between 2004 and 2008, construction extended the lanes north from SR 56 to Del Lago Boulevard in Escondido. Then, between 2009 and 2012, work was done to widen the southern reversible segment from two lanes to four, and then extend the corridor north to SR 78. The lanes, dubbed a "highway within a highway", include a movable "zipper" barrier for 16 miles (26 km), which can be changed to create an extra lane as demand allows. In addition, five direct access ramps allow for easier local access, as well as access to bus service from MTS Rapid . The second segment of HOT lanes

Between I-805 and I-8 , SR 15 follows the former alignment of 40th Street, which

2891-426: The signs were replaced some time later. Present SR 15 was signed after the creation of I-15 in 1968. Since I-15's southern terminus was at I-8, SR 15 was signed mostly along 40th Street and Wabash Boulevard in San Diego to its merge with I-5 . The portion between Adams Avenue and I-805 remained a city street for a long time, and this portion was not completed until January 2000. For this reason,

Then, in 1993,
3186-472: Was extended north to pre-1964 Legislative Route 31 (present I-15 and I-215) in 1935. The piece south of US 60 ( Mission Boulevard ), running along North Main Street, Hamner Avenue, and Milliken Avenue, was state-maintained by 1955, but was not assigned a signed number. This was still the only existing piece in 1963, and had a planned freeway replacement to the east. In the 1964 renumbering ,
