Route description

NC 152 is a predominantly two-lane highway that traverses 25.5 miles (41.0 km), from NC 150, in Mooresville, to US 52, in Rockwell.

History

Established in 1930 as a new primary routing, from NC 150, east of Mooresville, to NC 80, in Rockwell. By 1955, NC 152 was extended through downtown Mooresville, replacing parts of NC 150 and NC 150A. In August, 2003, NC 152 was realigned in downtown Mooresville to follow NC 3 to its northern terminus with NC 150, thus becoming NC 152's current western terminus. In December, 2003, NC 152 was rerouted in China Grove, upgrading East Church Street (SR 1337) to US 29, then taking the immediate interchange to its north back onto its alignment. The old routing along North Main Street was downgraded to secondary roads.[2][3]
