These routes are indicated as FAP (Federal Aid Primary), FAU (Federal Aid Urban), or FAS (Federal Aid Secondary). If no funding source is shown, no federal funds were used. Note that while some segments seem to have the same attributes, they may differ in the county-local road number assigned to the segment, or in the Caltrans Map Sheet number.]

History and Signage Information History and Signage Information

Cty Rte J14 below Los BanosThis route appears to have been defined in 1964-1966, with an additional segment that ran from Turlock to Los Banos along what is now Route 165. In 1970, Chapter 1473 redefined Route 165 to "Route 5 south of Los Banos to Route 99 near Turlock.". The remainder of the route remained as County Sign Route J14. This is shown on the 1966 Gousha Map.
(Supporting Source and Hat Tip: Gribblenation Blog "California State Route 162 to the Bidwell Bar Bridge (both the 1965 and 1856 variants)")

County Sign Route J14 south of Route 99 in Turlock to Route 152/Route 33 in Los Banos was spun off into the second designation of Route 165 by way of 1970 Legislative Chapter 1473.  The second Route 165 was defined as a 38-mile highway between Route 99 in Turlock to I-5 approximately 9 miles south of Los Banos.  The creation of the second Route 165 aligns with the opening of I-5 in the Los Banos area.  Route 165 seemingly was designated to permit access from a State maintained facility in Los Banos to both I-5 and Route 99.  It is not clear if County Sign Route J14 ever reached I-5 when freeway opened south of Los Banos.  As of 1975, the unbuilt segment of Route 165 between Stevinson to Turlock likely was not up to State standards and probably was signed as County Sign Route J14.  By 1979, Route 165 was completed to Turlock.  It was likely at this point that County Sign Route J14 was truncated to Route 99.
