K-152 was first designated in 1926, as K-35. At that time it ran from K-7 eastward to K-5. By 1927, K-5 became US-73E. US-73E was redesignated as US-69 sometime between 1933 and 1936. Before 1937, K-152 ended west of Fontana at K-7. Then on January 7, 1937, K-35 was realigned to continue west from Maddox Road and to end at K-7 further south, which is its current route. On October 15, 1957, K-35 was renumbered to K-135 to avoid confusion with the newly constructed Interstate 35 (I-35). On September 13, 1976, I-35W was renumbered to I-135. Then in order to avoid confusion with I-135, K-135 was renumbered to K-152.
