State Route 282 (SR 282) is an east–west state highway in the U.S. state of California. It is the spur from State Route 75 and connects traffic between the city of Coronado and Naval Air Station North Island. The entire route uses the one-way couplet, with Third Street in the westbound direction and Fourth Street in the eastbound direction. SR 282 was designated in 1968, around the time the San Diego–Coronado Bridge was opened. Attempts to build the tunnel to allow base traffic to bypass the Coronado city streets were rejected by voters in 2010.

Route description[edit]

SR 282 eastbound at SR 75 in Coronado

SR 282 begins at Alameda Boulevard as the one-way couplet, where McCain Boulevard continues west from the Fourth Street intersection from Alameda Boulevard into Naval Air Station North Island. Third and Fourth Streets continue through the intersections of J Avenue, I Avenue, Palm Avenue, H Avenue, G Avenue, F Avenue, E Avenue, and D Avenue, passing by homes along the way. Third Street goes by Palm Park, and Fourth Street by Triangle Park; both are at the intersections with Palm Avenue. SR 282 travels slightly southeast towards its terminus at SR 75 (Orange Avenue), and continues onto SR 75 leading east back to San Diego.[2]

SR 282 is part of the National Highway System (NHS),[3] the network of roadways important to the country's economy, defense, and mobility.[4]

History[edit]

SR 282 was initially designated in 1967 from SR 75 to the Naval Air Station; however, it was not to be official until the San Diego–Coronado Bridge was completed.[5] However, before the bridge opened, the designation was added in 1968, and the portion of Orange Avenue from the Coronado Ferry landing to Fourth Street was part of SR 282 as well until the bridge opened on August 3, 1969.[6][7]

On June 8, 2010, Coronado voters decided against Proposition H, which would have advised the city to undergo further investigation into building the tunnel between the Coronado bridge and the San Diego Naval Base.[8] This concluded ten years of studies and proposals by the city of Coronado to find the way to reduce traffic to the naval station during rush hour. Critics of the proposal did not believe that the tunnel would resolve the traffic issues.[9] Following this, the Coronado City Council voted to abolish the Tunnel Commission.[10]

Major intersections[edit]
