History.
In 1955, Executive Order No. 113 was issued by former President Ramon Magsaysay, declaring the highway as a national secondary road. It was declared a national secondary road due to the recommendation of the former National Transportation Board. Therefore, the highway is currently maintained by Department of Public Works and Highways as it was strengthened into a Department Order No. 90 in 1977.
