Route 210, presently marked variously as Interstate 210 (I-210), State Route 210 (SR 210), and State Route 30 (SR 30), and named the Foothill Freeway, is a state highway in the Los Angeles area of the U.S. state of California. It forms a bypass around the north side of Los Angeles, and passes near downtown San Bernardino, through the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains.
East of SR 57 at the Glendora Curve in Glendora, the Foothill Freeway is presently signed as SR 210, with the eastern section near San Bernardino marked as SR 30, its old designation. The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) has previously been rejected in requesting its addition to the Interstate Highway System, but that was prior to July 2007, when the remaining portion of freeway was completed.
Route description
I-210's western terminus is at its junction with the Golden State Freeway (I-5), near the Sylmar district of Los Angeles, in the foothills separating the San Fernando and Santa Clarita valleys. From that point, the freeway's alignment is generally diagonal as it heads southeast through the northeastern San Fernando Valley and the Crescenta Valley before turning due south towards the junction with the Ventura Freeway (State Route 134) in Pasadena. At this interchange, the number assignment of I-210, somewhat confusingly, 'transfers' to the alignment of SR 134. The physical alignment of the freeway continues south, however, ending at California Boulevard; this confusing alignment is actually the unsigned northern stub of the unfinished I-710, intended to junction with the Foothill Freeway. I-210 then becomes an east-west freeway (the SR 134 number assignment is dropped east of the interchange) to the Orange Freeway (State Route 57) in San Dimas.
State Route 210 presently has two distinct segments:
The western freeway segment serves as the easternmost portion of the Foothill Freeway (Interstate 210). Beginning at the east end of I-210 near San Dimas, SR 210 extends eastward, eventually paralleling Highland Avenue, as it continues through Fontana. It intersects Interstate 15, an artery between Southern California and Nevada a few miles before it meets with Interstate 215 in San Bernardino.
The segment east of Interstate 215 is the former alignment of State Route 30, although Caltrans has not yet changed all the signs on this portion to SR 210. This segment extends eastward to junctions with Interstate 215, State Route 259, State Route 18 and State Route 330 in Highland. State Route 210 then curves southward and ends in a junction with Interstate 10 in Redlands.
Future
With the completion of a central freeway segment in July of 2007, Caltrans is expected to ask the AASHTO to designate the entire route as part of Interstate 210. Once approved, the SR 210 and SR 30 green State Route signs will be replaced with Interstate 210 ones.
State law
Legal Definition of Route 210: California Streets and Highways Code, Chapter 2, Article 3, Section 510 Template:CAFES Template:CAScenicAlt
Route 210 from Route 5 to Route 10 in Redlands is known as the Foothill Freeway, as named by Senate Concurrent Resolution 29, Chapter 128 in 1991.[2]
History
The alignment of I-210 originally included the northern segment of what is now the Orange Freeway (State Route 57) from Glendora to its intersection with the San Bernardino Freeway (I-10) and the Chino Valley Freeway (State Route 71) at the Kellogg Interchange complex in Pomona. The Foothill Freeway began construction in 1958, and the first section was opened in 1966 signed as State Route 118. The section east of State Route 134 to Interstate 10 was done in 1971.
For the next several decades, Caltrans constructed extensions to the Foothill Freeway from San Dimas to the Interstate 215/State Route 30 interchange in San Bernardino. In 2003, the 20-mile (32 km) segment east of San Dimas was completed, and the I-210 numbered assignment to the Kellogg Interchange was transferred to the current east-west segment noted above, and the State Route 57 number assignment was re-routed to its present alignment. The section between Interstate 15 and Interstate 215 officially opened on July 24, 2007.
Caltrans has petitioned the AASHTO, the federal body that oversees the interstate highway system, to re-sign the entire Foothill Freeway, including the entire segments of State Routes 210 and 30 to I-210. In the meantime, Caltrans is in the process of re-signing State Route 30 from I-215 to Interstate 10 in Redlands as part of State Route 210. The removal of the leg now signed as the 57 gave I-210 an uncommon distinction: it is a 3-digit spur route that does not connect to its parent route, Interstate 10.
The western freeway segment, planned since the 1970s and completed in 2002, replaced a western surface street segment that began with Base Line Road (sometimes spelled Baseline Road) at its intersection with Foothill Boulevard in San Dimas and extends eastward into Upland. In Upland it became 16th Street, then turned northward onto Mountain Avenue, then turned eastward onto 19th Street. It left Upland and continued eastward into Rancho Cucamonga. It then seemed to turn northward onto Haven Avenue and end at the western freeway segment. This segment is probably still signed as SR 30—at least in some places if not ubiquitously—but some recently published maps are reflecting a signage change.
State Route 30 is the former designation of State Route 210 and State Route 330. Route 30 ran from its interchange with I-210 at the Glendora Curve east to State Route 18 at Big Bear Lake. The easternmost portion of Route 30 was transferred to Route 330 in 1972. Thereafter, Route 30 was routed south to I-10 in Redlands. In 1999, the entirety of Route 30 from the Glendora Curve to Redlands was transferred to Route 210. However, the freeway portion of former Route 30 from I-215 to I-10 and portions of Highland Avenue in the cities of San Bernardino and Rialto are still signed as Route 30.
Use as movie location
In 1974, Universal Studios used condemned houses ready to be bulldozed for a section of the freeway in Pasadena for the disaster film Earthquake.
From 1975 to 1981, the uncompleted section of Interstate 210 in La Crescenta (and the intersecting SR 2 Glendale Freeway) was often used often as a filming location. Some films and television shows filmed on this section include the theatrical films Death Race 2000, Corvette Summer and The Gumball Rally as well as the made for television films "Smash Up on Interstate 5" and "The Great American Traffic Jam."
Perhaps most famously, the American television series "CHiPs" made extensive use of the Interstate 210–CA SR 118 interchange, often conducting major action sequences on the closed freeway. This section was finally opened in 1981 once the Tujunga Wash bridge was completed.
Later, as the freeway extended further east, so did its use as a filming location. In 2005 and 2006, for example, several television shows, commercials, and feature films shot on the unopened section of the freeway between Alder Avenue and Linden Avenue in the city of Rialto. A character in the fifth season of the fictional television show 24, which is set in Southern California sometime around 2009 or 2010, gives her location to be the intersection of I-210 and I-10, presumably referring to a future reconnection of I-210 to its parent.
In late August 2006, one of the shoots on the freeway was a portion of a major action sequence in the feature film "Transformers". The 2007 series Drive, which uses highways settings for many of its action scenes, also shoots on the 210.[3] In the first episode, the Alder Avenue exit sign is clearly legible.
Exit list
- Note: Except where prefixed with a letter, postmiles were measured in 1964, based on the alignment as it existed at that time, and do not necessarily reflect current mileage. The numbers reset at county lines; the start and end postmiles in each county are given in the county column.
