SP-52 (São Paulo highway)

The SP-52, officially designated as Rodovia Prefeito Homero Severo Lins, is a state highway located in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. It is a transverse highway, meaning it crosses the state from east to west. The SP-52 connects various municipalities in the interior of São Paulo state.

While not as heavily trafficked as some of the major radial highways radiating from the capital city of São Paulo, the SP-52 serves an important role in regional connectivity, facilitating the transportation of agricultural products, manufactured goods, and people between the connected cities and towns. It is maintained and administered by the Departamento de Estradas de Rodagem (DER-SP), the São Paulo state highway department.

The highway's official name, Rodovia Prefeito Homero Severo Lins, honors Homero Severo Lins, a former mayor of a municipality along the highway's route, as is common practice for naming Brazilian highways. The "SP" prefix designates that it is a state highway within São Paulo. Road conditions and traffic volume on the SP-52 can vary along its length, and travelers should consult up-to-date information from the DER-SP or other reliable sources before undertaking a journey.
