Route 210 , consisting of adjacent segments Interstate 210 ( I-210 ) and Country Route 210 ( SR 210 ) formed Foothill Freeway , is a highway east-west state in the Greater Los Angeles area of ​​the US state of California. The western part of this route is an additional Interstate Highway, while the eastern part is the state highway. The entire route was upgraded to the Interstate Highway standard in 2007, but the eastern segment continues to be signed as a state route.
The name Foothill Freeway is a reference to Foothill Boulevard and the San Gabriel Mountains, both run parallel to the highway for most of its length. The highway connects Los Angeles to the northern suburbs following the foot of this mountain. The freeway runs from the eastern Los Angeles Sylmar district to Redlands.
Currently all Foothill Freeway are designated Route 210. Historically, Freeway Foothill spans some numerical naming. In addition, the designation of I-210 has changed the route; previously including some of what is now Orange Freeway (SR 57). The intersection with SR 57 in Glendora is now where the designation of Route 210 changes from the Interstate Expressway to the state. East Pasadena Parallel Foothill Freeway is parallel, and in some parts replaced, route former US Route 66.

Route description
The west terminal of I-210 is at the intersection with Golden State Freeway (I-5), near the Los Angeles Sylmar district. From that point, the highway alignment is usually diagonal as it leads to the southeast through the northeastern San Fernando Valley and Crescenta Valley. After leaving Los Angeles, he enters North Glendale and meets the Glendale Freeway (State Route 2) before turning south toward the intersection with Ventura Freeway (State Route 134) in Pasadena. At this intersection, the Foothill Freeway shifts its alignment and direction, becoming the east-west free road. From the north, the main road through the I-210 line becomes the unfinished northern pioneer unfinished I-710, while from the east, the lines from Ventura Freeway become I-210 as Ventura Freeway reaches the official eastern terminal. After crossing the northern end of I-605 (the San Gabriel Freeway), I-210 then continues east to Orange Freeway (Route State 57) in Glendora. Head east from the Orange Freeway junction, to the east terminal at I-10 in Redlands, 210 is currently signed as a state route.
Part of Metro Gold Line from LACMTA runs on the median Foothill Freeway from Pasadena to Arcadia, serving 3 stations:
- Lake Avenue
- Allen Avenue
- Vila Madre Villa
State Route 210 currently has two distinct segments:
- The western freeway serves as the easternmost part of the Foothill Freeway (Interstate 210). Comprised of newer toll roads, starting at the east end of I-210 near San Dimas, SR 210 extends eastward, finally aligning Highland Avenue, continuing through Fontana. It intersects Interstate 15, an artery between Southern California and Nevada, about ten miles before meeting Interstate 215 in San Bernardino.
- The eastern segment of Interstate 215 is the previous juxtaposition of State Route 30. This segment extends east to the intersection with Interstate 215, State Route 259, State Route 18 and State Route 330 in Highland. The State Route 210 then curves south and ends at the intersection with Interstate 10 in Redlands.
The Glendora Curve is the previous everyday name for the exchange between State Route 57 and Foothill Freeway, Interstate 210. The "curve" section refers to an exchange of the northern path of State Route 57 west of I-210 line, and from the eastern path I-210 to the southern route of the State Route 57. The origin of the name comes from its location in the city of Glendora. Prior to 2002, this exchange was fully part of I-210, and the eastern terminal I-210 ended a few miles south of the curve at the Kellogg junction at the Chino Valley Freeway junction, State Route 71, San Bernardino Freeway, I-10 and Route 57 After section I-210 south of the Glendora Curve was moved to Route 57 in 2002, effectively extending Route 210 through the East Glendora Curve, the name Glendora Curve fell from popular usage.
Route 210 is part of the California Freeway and Toll Road System, but is not part of the National Highway System, a road network considered essential for the economy, defense and mobility of the country by the Federal Highway Administration. Route 210 qualifies for the State Scenic Highway System, but is not officially designated as a beautiful highway by the California Department of Transportation. Route 210 of Route 5 to Route 10 in Redlands is known as the Foothill Freeway, as it was named by the Senate Concurrently Resolution 29, Chapter 128 in 1991.

History
The 210
Construction began on the highway in 1958. The first section, starting at the eastern end of Foothill Boulevard in what is now La CaÃÆ'ÃŽ ± is Flintridge, and crossing the Arroyo Seco near the Demon Gate Dam to Canada Street in Pasadena, opened in 1966; it was later signed as State Route 118. The northwestern part of Pasadena via La Canada Flintridge to the intersection with I-5 at Sylmar was built in several stages between 1971 and 1977. The first part that opened was between Ocean View Boulevard and Lowell Avenue in La Crescenta, in July, 1972, followed in November by the section between Berkshire Avenue and Ocean View at La CaÃÆ' Â ± there Flintridge. The part of the expressway in Sylmar, California that was intended to open first (between Interstate 5 and MacClay Avenue) was damaged by the 1971 Sylmar Earthquake, and the opening was postponed until repairs could be completed in 1973. In Pasadena, part of California, A bridge that crosses Arroyo Seco collapsed during construction in October, 1972, and as a result, the northern part through Pasadena was not fully opened until 1974. The final section of San Fernando Valley to be completed is between Highway 118 on Lake View Terrace and Lowell Avenue at La Crescenta. Although this section was largely completed in 1976, the portion between Sun Valley Boulevard and Wheatland Avenue (across Tujunga Wash) was not fully completed until 1981. From 1976 to 1980, the unfinished Interstate 210 (mainly near the Highway intersection 118, near the Paxton Street exit) was hired by Columbia Pictures Television for the filming of the television series, CHiPs .
In 1968, Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe Railway depots in Santa Anita, a historic structure built in 1890, was moved to the Los Angeles County Arboretum and Botanical Gardens to open the way for the highway through Arcadia. The "Pasadena" section of State Route 134 to Rosemead Boulevard was completed in 1976, while parts of Arcadia, California to Kellogg Interchange with Interstate 10 at Pomona were previously completed in 1971. The intermediate part of the Kellogg and Glendora exchanges no longer part of I- 210. In 2003, this section was numbered back as part of State Route 57, known as the Orange Freeway.
In the 1990s, Caltrans began building extensions to the freeway from eastern Glendora to the intersection of Interstate 215/State Route 30 in San Bernardino. In 2003, a segment along the 20 miles (32 km) east of Glendora to Fontana was completed, with a section moving south from Glendora with a number numbered SR 57. The rest of the eastern Interstate 15 between Fontana and Interstate 215 opened on July 24 2007..
Caltrans has proposed AASHTO, a trade organization that oversees the appointment and naming of the Interstate Highway system, to re-sign the entire Foothill Freeway, including all route segments Country 210 and 30, such as I-210. After completing the new freeway segment in west I-215, State Route 30 from I-215 to I-10 at Redlands was re-signed as State Route 210. The 2003 re-signing of the previous section I-210 is now signed as State Route 57 truncated I-210 from its parent route, I-10. Assuming that the authority is assigned at some point in the future to re-sign the overall 210 as an interstate, I-210 will once again connect to its parent route, but much further east in the Redlands.
The western freeway, which had been planned since the 1970s and completed in 2002, replaces the western road segment starting with the Base Line Road (sometimes spelled Baseline Road) at its intersection with Foothill Boulevard in La Verne and extended to the east to Upland. In Upland becomes 16th Street, then turn north onto Mountain Avenue, then turn east onto 19th Street. It leaves Upland and continues east toward Rancho Cucamonga. After Haven Ave at Rancho Cucamonga, 19th Street curved northward, and became the Highland Ave, which still exists in some areas despite being in pieces as the highway overlaps onto Highland Ave, such as the eastern ramp and off ramps for Milliken Ave. Highland Ave diverges from the original SR 30 alignment on Etiwanda Ave when curves south and end on East Ave, the border of Rancho Cucamonga and Fontana. Highland Ave starts again on Cherry Ave, east of I-15 and continues east, into W. Easton Ave on Alder Ave. Shortly after, it made a sharp left curve on Riverside Ave, crossed the freeway and became Highland Ave again. From here, he leaves Rialto and goes to San Bernardino. It crosses under SR 210, I-215, and SR 259 before entering the Highland town. At Highland, the original SR30 crosses below the last 210 and ends when it crosses over SR 330. Some maps still show part of this route as SR 30.
State Route 30 is a former designation of State Route 210 and State Route 330. Route 30 ran from junction with I-210 in eastern Glendora to State Route 18 in Big Bear Lake. The eastern section of Route 30 was transferred to Route 330 in 1972. After that, Route 30 was diverted southward to I-10 in Redlands. In 1999, the entire Route 30 from the Glendora Curve to Redlands was transferred to Route 210.
State Route 30
SR 30 was adopted as a state route in 1933 as part of the Legislative Route 190. It is an unmarked highway, running from LRN 9 (formerly US 66, Foothill Blvd) near San Dimas to LRN 26 (SR 38) near Redlands. It also ran from LRN 26 near Redlands to LRN 43 near Big Bear Lake, which will be part of the SR 38. During California route numbering, the LRN 190 is divided into two different routes. The western part, between I-210 in San Dimas and Highland becomes SR 30. The east, between SR 38 in Redlands and Highland combined with LRN 207 (currently SR 330) to form SR 106. In 1972, the northern part of SR 106, between SR 30 and SR 18 will be renumbered SR 330. The southern portion, between SR 30 and I-10 (SR 106 moved to I-10 in 1965) is combined with SR 30.
The construction of an early toll road began in 1968, and built a highway between SR 259 and Cedar St. in San Bernardino. Construction continued eastward in 1971, which carries a highway just west of SR 330. Construction did not continue until 1989 which extended the western freeway to I-215. The final phase of construction began in 1992, which connects the south route to I-10.
In 1968, the State requested that SR 30 be incorporated into the Interstate system, but was rejected. The next attempt began in 1998. The state decided to close the 25-mile gap between I-210 and SR 30. It also decided to calculate the new highway as SR 210, in preparation of the route being an interstate. Also, when the new highway is close to the existing route, the entire route will be re-numbered SR 210. In addition, the short section of Orange Freeway, numbered I-210, will be re-numbered SR 57 to match the number used. for the rest of the freeway. Construction begins at the eastern end of Foothill Boulevard (Exit 47), and slowly moves east. In 2007, a major freeway section was completed, which ended the existence of SR 30.
I-215 interchange
The final phase of the Foothill Freeway project involves the completion of an exchange with I-215 (Exit 74). When the Foothill Freeway main line was completed in 2007, Exit 74 had only four of the six ramps built, the lost movement was from 210 EB to 215 SB and from 215 NB to 210 WB. The elevated road plan for this movement should be redeployed to address potential land disbursements in case of damage existing or undiscovered in the area during an earthquake; this project is separated from the main project 210 to avoid the last delay. The Exit 74 settlement is also related to the widening and improvement of I-215 in the area. The elevated bridge from northbound I-215 to the west to 210 opens on December 22, 2011, while CA 210 southward to south I-215 opens on July 23, 2012, thus completing the exchange.
