FYI, the southernmost sign denoting the Shore Line Highway is on the
very south edge of San Francisco, northbound, between Alemany and
Brotherhood Way on Rte 1.

How do highways get these names? The only ones specified by statute are
El Camino Real, PCH and Cabrillo Highway. At least that I can find.

So where do names like "Redwood Highway" and "Shoreline Highway" get
their authorization?
