At Atascadero, US 466 met US 101. Prior to 1959, it just crossed here and continued northeast. After 1959, US 466 joined US 101 to Paso Robles, continuing east along present-day State 46. The town itself was founded in 1913. Until 2000, State 41 (and previous US 466), followed West Mall, Capistrano Ave, and Sycamore Rd through town.
