Not in terms of freeways. It is true for highways: names such as the xxx
turnpike did come before the Federal Highway system. In California, roads such
as the National Trails highway (later, US66) or Lincoln highway (later Rte 1)
did come before the actual numbers. But not necessarily with the Freeways,
except, perhaps, with the original two (Ramona Expwy and Arroyo Seco Parkway).
Numbers were certainly in place by the time that much of the Golden State
(1960s) and San Diego were in place. [The Santa Ana Freeway, now Rte 5, was
part of Rte 101 before the interstates, and might have had a name].
