Construction on the road was completed in 2003. The Bangkok Road Naming Commission formally changed its name to Prasort Manukit Road in 2006. However, in popular practice and on many maps, Kaset-Nawamin Road is still common.

The name Prasert Manukit Road was originally assigned by the Streetin 2003 to the section of Pradit Manutham Road between Rama IX Road and Lat Phrao Road. This change was met with complaints from the public, and in 2004 the road's name was changed back. Then, in 2009, the name was assigned to Highway 351 instead.
