Moving routing to our core router

We have a core router, CR1, which is the gateway for our main subnet/vlan 1 and a separate physical router ,SR1 , which routes a secondary subnet. The secondary subnet was only added to extend available addresses. There is no need to separate them with a firewall. My goal is to remove SR1.

CR1 address 192.168.1.1 routes 192.168.1.0/24 SR1 address 192.168.2.2 routes 192.168.2.0/24

From my research I believe all I need to do is to make sure vlan 1 on CR1 has a secondary address such as 192.168.2.1 and then update all the clients on that subnet to point to this address for gateway. I would say I have intermediate knowledge of networking. I get confused with routes/when a static route is needed. Is there a route I need to confirm as well? Does adding a secondary address cause any disruption for vlan1 traffic?
