State Highway 52 is a state highway in the U.S. State of Idahomarker that travels along the Payette Rivermarker from the Oregonmarker State Line and Snake River to Horseshoe Bendmarker.

Route description

State Highway 52 begins at the Oregonmarker/Idahomarker state line at the terminus of Oregon Route 52 where the highway crosses the Snake River near Payettemarker. The highway heads eastward through the city of Payettemarker, then following the Payette Rivermarker. The highway meets SH-72 at its junction east of New Plymouthmarker. Then heads eastward to the city of Emmettmarker where it turns north at its junction with SH-16 then continuing east up Black Canyon to its terminus at Horseshoe Bendmarker.

History

This route has been in existence since 1929 originally as part of State Highway 16 which originally terminated in Horseshoe Bendmarker. State Highway 52 was created in 1938, when the northern section of SH-16 from Emmettmarker to Horseshoe Bendmarker was rerouted westward to New Plymouthmarker. SH-16 was eventually truncated at Emmettmarker in 1955, and SH-52 was then extended westward along the former SH-16 heading toward New Plymouthmarker, and ending up in Payettemarker and the state line.
