55-735: State Route 57 ( SR 57 ), also known as the Orange Freeway for most of its length, is a north–south state highway in the Greater Los Angeles Area of the U.S. state of California . It connects the interchange of Interstate 5 (I-5) and SR 22 near downtown Orange , locally known as the Orange Crush , to the Glendora Curve interchange with I-210 and SR 210 in Glendora . The highway provides

110-602: A bypass of the Valley Boulevard portion of the route in the early-to-mid-1930s, leaving the old road near Diamond Bar and heading northeast through the foothills, along the present freeway alignment and Mission Boulevard. To the south, the legislature added then-unrelated Route 180 along State College Boulevard in 1933, connecting Route 2 (I-5) near the Santa Ana River with Route 175 (Orangethorpe Avenue, later replaced by SR 91 ) near Placentia. By 1955,

165-511: A full eight-lane freeway. This project is underway and is expected to be fully complete by 2027. Additionally, the Riverside County Transportation Commission is constructing a two-lane flyover ramp between eastbound SR 91 and northbound SR 71 to replace the current one-lane loop ramp. Except where prefixed with a letter, postmiles were measured on the road as it was in 1964 , based on

220-484: A named route branch) Trans-Canada route marker is co-signed with a numbered provincial sign, with the provincial route often continuing alone outside the Trans-Canada Highway section. However, in the western provinces, the two parallel Trans-Canada routes are consistently numbered with Trans-Canada route markers; as Highways 1 and 16 respectively. Canada also has a designated National Highway System , but

275-645: A network of highways that are essential to the country's economy, defense, and mobility. The highway from SR 1 to SR 60 in Diamond Bar is officially designated as the Orange Freeway. In 2013, SR 57 had an annual average daily traffic (AADT) of 129,000 between SR 60 and Sunset Crossing Road in Diamond Bar, and 278,500 between SR 91 in Anaheim and Orangethorpe Avenue in Placentia,

330-530: A population of at least 10,000 inhabitants are urban roads (type D and E) under the jurisdiction of the relevant municipalities. The state highway that cross towns or villages with a population of less than 10,000 inhabitants are urban roads (type D and E) under the jurisdiction of the municipality, subject to authorization from ANAS . State highways in India are numbered highways that are laid and maintained by state governments . Mexico 's State Highway System

385-723: A route across several spurs of the Peninsular Ranges , linking the Los Angeles Basin with the Pomona Valley and San Gabriel Valley . A predecessor to this road ran through Brea Canyon by the early 20th century and was added to the state highway system. The freeway was built in stages during the 1950s, one of which included the Brea Canyon Freeway; SR 57 was designated as part of the 1964 state highway renumbering . The final portion of

440-617: A three-digit number designation, preceded by D . Provincial roads ( Turkish : İl yolu ) are secondary roads, maintained by respective local governments with the support of the KGM. The roads have a four-digit numbering grouped as two pairs, pairs are separated by a dash. First pair represents the license number of that province . State highways are generally a mixture of primary and secondary roads, although some are freeways (for example, State Route 99 in California, which links many of

495-695: A toll road elevated above the Santa Ana River rather than through existing neighborhoods, only extending south to the San Diego Freeway (I-405) in Costa Mesa with connections to the Corona del Mar Freeway ( SR 73 ); this was largely inspired by congestion on SR 55 through the Santa Ana area. The extension was considered by Caltrans as two 11.2-mile-long (18.0 km), two-lane viaducts that would cost $ 950 million. The toll road franchise that

550-585: A west-to-east alignment (including its original eastern segment that extended through Temecula and Anza ), and do not necessarily reflect current mileage. R reflects a realignment in the route since then, M indicates a second realignment, L refers to an overlap due to a correction or change, and T indicates postmiles classified as temporary ( for a full list of prefixes, see California postmile § Official postmile definitions ). Segments that remain unconstructed or have been relinquished to local control may be omitted. The numbers reset at county lines;

The highways in New Zealand are all state highways, and the network consists of SH 1 running the length of both main islands, SH 2–5 and 10–58 in the North Island, and SH 6–8 and 60–99 in the South Island. National and provincial highways are numbered approximately north to south. State Highway 1 runs the length of both islands. Local highways ( Korean :  지방도 ; Hanja :  地方道 ; RR :  Jibangdo ; MR :  Chipangdo ) are

660-490: Is a system of urban and state routes constructed and maintained by each Mexican state. The main purpose of the state networks is to serve as a feeder system to the federal highway system. All states except the Federal District operate a road network. Each state marks these routes with a white shield containing the abbreviated name of the state plus the route number. New Zealand state highways are national highways –

715-748: Is an expressway for a half-mile when it intersects with Pomona Rincon Road. After this intersection, SR 71 becomes a freeway up to Rio Rancho Road before reverting to an expressway up to Mission Boulevard. (Previously, it was an expressway until its northern terminus, but this segment was upgraded to a freeway in 2012.) The route becomes a short freeway for about a mile until it meets at the Kellogg Interchange in San Dimas , where it terminates at I-10 and SR 57 . As of December 2016, all traffic signals were removed. Traffic entering and exiting

770-424: Is divided into provinces and territories, each of which maintains its own system of provincial or territorial highways, which form the majority of the country's highway network. There is also the national transcontinental Trans-Canada Highway system, which is marked by distinct signs, but has no uniform numeric designation across the country. In the eastern provinces, for instance, an unnumbered (though sometimes with

825-498: Is free to choose a different marker, and most states have. States may choose a design theme relevant to its state (such as an outline of the state itself) to distinguish state route markers from interstate, county, or municipal route markers. Chino Valley Freeway State Route 71 ( SR 71 ) is a 15-mile (24 km) state highway in the U.S. state of California . Serving Riverside , San Bernardino , and Los Angeles counties, it runs from SR 91 in Corona to

880-706: Is legally eligible for the State Scenic Highway System through Brea Canyon , between SR 90 and SR 60 , though it has not officially been designated as a scenic highway by the California Department of Transportation . The entire route is in the California Freeway and Expressway System , and is a freeway for its entire constructed length. SR 57 is also part of the National Highway System (NHS),

935-568: Is not a road class. The Strade Statali , abbreviated SS, is the Italian national network of state highways. The total length for the network is about 25.000 km (15.534 mi). The Italian state highway network are maintained by ANAS . From 1928 until 1946 state highways were maintained by Azienda Autonoma Statale della Strada (AASS). The next level of roads below Strada Statali is Strada Regionale ("regional roads"). The routes of some state highways derive from ancient Roman roads , such as

990-734: Is part of the National Highway System , a network of highways that are considered essential to the country's economy, defense, and mobility by the Federal Highway Administration . SR 71 is eligible for the State Scenic Highway System ; however, it is not designated as a scenic highway by Caltrans. The original routing of SR 71, according to the 1934 listing, was from US 80 (now I-8 ), in San Diego north to US 66 (now SR 66 ), near Claremont via Lake Elsinore and Temecula . The route between Claremont/Pomona and Lake Elsinore roughly followed

1045-406: Is vested in the federal states of Germany. Most federal states use the term Landesstraße (marked with 'L'), while for historical reasons Saxony and Bavaria use the term Staatsstraße (marked with 'S'). The appearance of the shields differs from state to state. The term Land-es-straße should not be confused with Landstraße , which describes every road outside built-up areas and

1100-473: The Glendora Curve interchange with the Foothill Freeway ( I-210 ) in Glendora . High-occupancy vehicle lanes (HOV) exist in the median of SR 57 south of SR 60 in Diamond Bar. Elevated ramps allow HOV traffic bound to or from Brea Canyon to connect with I-5 towards the southeast, SR 91 towards the west, or SR 60 towards the east without entering the main lanes. SR 57

1155-889: The Kellogg Interchange with I-10 and SR 57 on the border of Pomona and San Dimas . The segment from SR 91 to SR 83 in Chino Hills is called the Corona Freeway , formerly the Corona Expressway and before then the Temescal Freeway . SR 71 is designated as the Chino Valley Freeway between SR 83 and the Kellogg Interchange. Beginning at its southern terminus, SR 91 in Corona, SR 71

1210-664: The Orange Crush interchange near downtown Orange , where it meets the northwest–southeast Santa Ana Freeway ( I-5 ) and the east–west Garden Grove Freeway (SR 22). The Orange Crush interchange, which had long been considered a major bottleneck , was rebuilt in the 1990s and 2000s. The freeway heads north from the junction and soon crosses to the west side of the Santa Ana River , continuing north through suburban portions of Anaheim and passing next to Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center , Angel Stadium and Honda Center . In northern Anaheim, SR 57 meets

1265-522: The Riverside Freeway ( SR 91 ). SR 57 briefly passes through Placentia and Fullerton , providing access to California State University, Fullerton . As it crosses Imperial Highway ( SR 90 ) near the Brea Mall and enters Brea , SR 57 enters more rugged terrain before climbing through Brea Canyon, the gap between the Chino Hills and Puente Hills . Near the rim of the canyon,

1320-626: The Strada statale 7 Via Appia , which broadly follows the route of the Roman road of the same name . Other examples are the Strada statale 1 Via Aurelia ( Via Aurelia ) and the Strada statale 4 Via Salaria ( Via Salaria ). Since the reforms following the birth of the Kingdom of Italy in 1861, the State took charge of the construction and maintenance of a primary network of roads for connections between

1375-496: The Valley Boulevard from Los Angeles near Walnut and continuing east to Pomona via Valley and Pomona Boulevards . Los Angeles County paved the road in concrete in early 1923, and in 1931 it was added to the state highway system as a branch of Route 19 . Until then, Route 19 had connected Route 9 near Claremont with Riverside , following Garey Avenue and Mission Boulevard through Pomona. The state built

1430-558: The American Transportation Development (ATD) held for this portion of SR 57 expired in January ;2001, after a request to delay the expiration until January 2007. Following this, ATD sued to restore the franchise, and this case lasted until November 2003. The termination was due to ATD not beginning the construction during the first ten years of the franchise, after it had been enacted by

1485-593: The Brea Canyon Freeway was proposed to begin at the Santa Ana Freeway (I-5) near La Veta Avenue in Santa Ana and head north, paralleling Routes 180 and 19 to Pomona. The portion northeast of Diamond Bar into Pomona soon became part of the planned Pomona Freeway, and the name of the remainder was changed to Orange Freeway. The state legislature altered the definition of Route 19 to reflect this in 1957 by moving its south end to Santa Ana. Then, in 1957,

1540-782: The Chino Valley Freeway was built in 1971 from the Kellogg Interchange to SR 60 (the Pomona Freeway). The section from SR 60 to SR 91 (the Riverside Freeway) was completed in March 1998. In September 2008, construction began on the Mission 71 Project in Pomona. A bridge was constructed to allow Mission Boulevard to pass over SR 71, which now has entrance and exit ramps to Mission. Also,

1595-502: The Katella Avenue exit, Caltrans and OCTA plan to widen that 0.5 mile strip of road to add one more lane in the northbound direction. State highway Roads maintained by a state or province include both nationally numbered highways and un-numbered state highways. Depending on the state, "state highway" may be used for one meaning and "state road" or "state route" for the other. In some countries such as New Zealand ,

1650-644: The Mission Boulevard exit, all aspects of the highway, such as its alignment, lane width, pavement, barriers, and access, 'upgrade' to freeway standards. The section of the highway between Corona and Chino is notorious for thick winter fogs at dawn and dusk, resulting in many automobile collisions when drivers fail to slow down due to reduced visibility. Residents of Los Serranos (now Chino Hills ) recall being awakened by sounds of crinkling bumpers, fenders, and headlights. As this freeway/expressway serves as an important northwest-southeast corridor between

1705-571: The cities in the Pomona and San Gabriel valleys (eastern Los Angeles County ) and the cities of western Riverside County , it is heavily traveled. It is used as an alternative to SR 57 (the Orange Freeway) situated to the west and I-15 (the Ontario Freeway) located to the east. When the route runs through Chino Hills and Chino , there is a high-occupancy vehicle lane available for use; however, this carpool lane ends when

1760-644: The cities of the Central Valley , Route 128 in Massachusetts, or parts of Route 101 in New Hampshire). Each state has its own system for numbering and its own marker. The default marker is a white circle containing a black sans serif number (often inscribed in a black square or slightly rounded square), according to the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD). However each state

1815-608: The edge of the Puente Hills and into the west end of the Pomona Valley . Here it meets the San Bernardino Freeway ( I-10 ) and Chino Valley Freeway ( SR 71 ) at the four-level Kellogg Hill Interchange . In the north half of that interchange, SR 57 enters the San Jose Hills , climbing to its highest elevation before descending back into the connected San Gabriel and Pomona Valleys and ending at

1870-495: The end of the 1980s, and in some states, some less important National Routes were downgraded to State Routes. Each state has or had its own numbering scheme, but do not duplicate National Route numbers in the same state, or nearby routes in another state. As with the National Routes and National Highways, State Routes are being phased out in most states and territories in favour of alphanumeric routes. However, despite

1925-508: The fact that Victoria has fully adopted alphanumeric routes in regional areas, state route numbers are still used extensively within the city of Melbourne as a part of its Metropolitan Route Numbering Scheme . Brazil is another country that is divided into states and has state highways. For example, the longest highway in the state of São Paulo , the Rodovia Raposo Tavares , is designated as SP-270 and SP-295 . Canada

1980-661: The highway curves north out of the Brea Canyon, and descends slightly to a junction with the Pomona Freeway ( SR 60 ) in Diamond Bar , right on the edge of the San Gabriel Valley . A short overlap carries SR 57 traffic on the same roadway as SR 60. The two routes head northeast through an arm of the San Gabriel Valley ; after they split, SR 57 ascends slightly and then slopes through

2035-475: The intersection with Ninth Street was closed. The freeway was extended south to the former intersection at Ninth Street, where it resumes expressway status to the intersection with Old Pomona Road. The construction project was completed in December 2011. The City of Pomona is currently working with Caltrans to convert the rest of SR 71 within its borders from its current status as a four-lane expressway to

2090-402: The latter of which was the highest AADT for the highway. The road through Brea Canyon was oiled dirt by the late 1910s, providing a good connection across an outbranching of the Peninsular Ranges between the Los Angeles Basin and Pomona Valley. This road left the main coast highway ( Harbor Boulevard ) at Fullerton and followed the present Brea Boulevard and Brea Canyon Road, merging with

2145-539: The legislature created Route 272, extending the line of the Orange Freeway north from the Pomona Freeway to the Temescal Freeway, completing the proposed freeway corridor that is now SR 57. When the entire route, except Route 240 which was still part of I-210, was redesignated SR 57 in the 1964 renumbering , none of these proposed freeways had been built; the only constructed segment

2200-541: The main cities; in 1865 the Lanza law introduced the classification of roads between national, provincial and municipal (see Annex F, art.10) and the Royal Decree of 17 November 1865, n. 2633 listed the first 38 national roads. Italian state highways are identified by a number and a name. In road signs and maps the number is preceded by the acronym SS, an acronym for strada statale ("state road"). The nomenclature of

State roads ( Turkish : Devlet yolu ) are primary roads, mostly under the responsibility of General Directorate of Highways (KGM) except in metropolitan city centers where the responsibility falls into the local government. The roads have

2310-408: The northernmost part of present SR 57 was added to the state highway system as part of Route 240 , which the legislature designated along the route planned for I-210. This became part of the proposed Temescal Freeway , later the Corona Freeway ; a southerly extension of the Orange Freeway to Legislative Route 60 ( SR 1 ) near Huntington Beach was added in 1959 as Route 273. Also in 1959,

2365-502: The path of the Butterfield Overland Mail stagecoach line. When the portion between San Diego and Temecula was redesignated US 395 , SR 71 was rerouted to run from Pomona to Aguanga. In 1973, it was cut back to its present terminus in Corona, with the portion between Corona and Temecula becoming I-15 and the portion between Temecula and Aguanga becoming SR 79 and SR 371 . The early section of

2420-421: The present-day Orange Freeway was not completed until the mid-1970s. The latest piece of SR 57 to be added was formerly part of I-210, after SR 210 was legislatively extended to San Bernardino in 1998. An unconstructed extension from Santa Ana south to Huntington Beach remains in the legal definition of SR 57, and has been studied as a toll road above the Santa Ana River . SR 57 begins at

2475-442: The roads that lead into the nearby neighborhoods (North Ranch Road, Old Pomona Road, and Phillips Drive) may no longer enter or exit northbound due to added barriers in the highway's median. However, until 2021, southbound traffic could use these streets. (North Ranch Road, Old Pomona Road, and Phillips Drive can enter the highway via a stop sign .) These streets have been completely closed to southbound access as of 2021. Just south of

2530-406: The route enters Riverside County (to the south) and Los Angeles County (to the north). The route is a four-lane highway between SR 91 and Central Avenue (excluding HOV lanes), a six-lane highway (excluding HOV lanes) from Central Avenue to SR 60 , and again a four-lane highway from SR 60 to I-10/SR 57. SR 71 is part of the California Freeway and Expressway System , and

2585-640: The state highways managed by ANAS generally follows the SS n scheme, where n is a number ranging from 1 ( Aurelia ) up to 700 (of the Royal Palace of Caserta ) depending on the date of establishment of the state highway. Newly built ANAS roads, not yet classified, are identified by the acronym NSA, an acronym for nuova strada ANAS ("new ANAS road"). State highways can be technically defined as main extra-urban roads (type B road) or as secondary extra-urban roads (type C road). State highways that cross towns with

2640-655: The state legislature. In April 2009, the Orange County Transportation Authority continued to study the extension of SR 57, where the freeway would travel along the Santa Ana River and terminate at I-405 in Fountain Valley . The northbound widening between Katella Avenue and SR 91 was finished in 2014. To keep the flow of the northbound fifth lane which ends after the Orangewood Avenue exit and resumes after

2695-664: The subsequent deletion from the Streets and Highways Code did not take place until 1981. With the extension of SR 210 around San Bernardino in 1998, the former easternmost piece of I-210 to the Kellogg Hill Interchange instead became a northerly extension of SR 57, though it remains officially part of the Interstate Highway System . The southerly extension to Huntington Beach remains unconstructed. In 1986, Orange County's plans were for

2750-468: The system is completely unsigned, aside from the Trans-Canada routes. This makes Canada unique in that national highway designations are generally secondary to subnational routes. In Germany , state roads ( Landesstraßen or Staatsstraßen ) are a road class which is ranking below the federal road network ( Bundesstraßen ). The responsibility for road planning, construction and maintenance

2805-530: The word "state" in this sense means "government" or "public" (as in state housing and state schools ), not a division of a country. New Zealand's state highway system is a nationwide network of roads covering the North Island and the South Island . As of 2006, just under 100 roads have a "State Highway" designation. The NZ Transport Agency administers them. The speed limit for most state highways

2860-578: The word "state" is used in its sense of a sovereign state or country. By this meaning a state highway is a road maintained and numbered by the national government rather than local authorities. Australia 's important urban and inter-regional routes not covered by the National Highway or National Route systems are marked under the State Route system. They can be recognised by blue shield markers. They were practically adopted in all states by

2915-407: Was constructed at the same time. The last pieces of that portion were the freeway through Brea Canyon, which opened March 13, 1972, and the four-level Kellogg Hill Interchange at I-10, which was dedicated May 1, 1972, and opened soon thereafter. Finally, the Orange Freeway was extended south from SR 91 to I-5 in the mid-1970s, allowing Route 250 to be turned back to local governments, though

2970-454: Was held in Placentia on January 30, 1967, to begin construction of the Orange Freeway. The first portion was dedicated on May 16, 1969, and opened soon after, extending north from the Riverside Freeway ( SR 91 ) to Nutwood Avenue in Fullerton. Over the next few years, the freeway was completed from SR 91 north to I-10, and I-210 was built north to the present end of SR 57; the Pomona Freeway ( SR 60 ), which overlaps it through Diamond Bar ,

3025-406: Was the old surface road from Fullerton towards Pomona. The part of old Route 19 east of Route 272 became part of SR 60 . As part of the same renumbering, Route 180 on State College Boulevard became Route 250, which was amended the next year to provide for its deletion once that portion of the SR 57 freeway was completed (between I-5 and SR 91 ).
