Everything about Sierra Highway totally explained
Sierra Highway is a road in
Southern California,
United States. It runs from Tunnel Station near the north limit of the
City of Los Angeles, where it intersects with
San Fernando Road and
Foothill Boulevard, as well as
Interstate 5, and continues north to
Mojave, mostly paralleling
State Route 14 (Antelope Valley Freeway). Formerly, except for the segment between its west junction with Soledad Canyon Road in
Santa Clarita and Ward Road in
Acton, it was State Route 14. Previous to July, 1964, the part of Sierra Highway identified in the preceding was signed
US 6. Previous to the late 1950s or early 1960s,
Sierra Highway was signed US 6 in its entirety.
The northernmost section of
Sierra Highway, between Silver Queen Road south of Mojave and Midland Trail in Mojave, hasn't been bypassed by a
freeway, and thus still carries SR 14. (There is a break in Sierra Highway at Silver Queen Road south of Mojave; through traffic approaching Silver Queen Road from the south wishing to continue on Sierra Highway must turn west onto Silver Queen Road and then north onto the onramp to northbound Route 14 to resume travel on Sierra Highway.)
A section of Sierra Highway near
Santa Clarita is designated and signed as
State Route 14U, which signifies that it's an unrelinquished section of
State Route 14, still owned by
Caltrans despite being bypassed by a freeway ca. 1971. SR 14U is 7.33 miles (11.80 km) long, from
postmile 24.28 (at the bridge carrying SR 14 over SR 14U, just north of the south end of Sierra Highway) north to postmile 31.61 (at the SR 14 ramps near Via Princessa).
