State Highways In California
The state highway system of the U.S. state of California is a network of highways that are owned and maintained by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). Each highway is assigned a ''Route'' (officially ''State Highway Route'') number in the Streets and Highways Code (Sections 300-635). Most of these are numbered in a statewide system, and are known as ''State Route X'' (abbreviated ''SR X''). United States Numbered Highways are labeled ''US X'', and Interstate Highways are ''Interstate X''. Under the code, the state assigns a unique ''Route X'' to each highway, and does not differentiate between state, US, or Interstate highways. The California Highway Patrol (CHP) is tasked with patrolling all state highways to enforce traffic laws. Overview California's highway system is governed pursuant tDivision 1 of the California Streets and Highways Code which is one of the 29 California Codes enacted by the state legislature. Since July 1 of 1964, the majorit ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
