History

The highway originally existed as the Lumbangan–Palico (Nasugbu–Tuy) section of Batangas–Bauan–Nasugbu Road, an old road which linked Nasugbu with Batangas. The section was constructed in the mid-1910s. A new road that connects Tuy to the newly-established city of Tagaytay was later constructed in the 1930s and was made part of the highway. The latter also formed part of Highway 17 that linked Imus with Batangas. The entire stretch of the highway was also referred to as Tagaytay-Tuy-Nasugbu Port Road.
