Interstate 710 and State Route 710 (California)

Interstate 710 (I-710) and State Route 710 (SR 710) are two highways in Los Angeles County, California. They are not connected, but they both go in the same north-south direction in line with each other. The I-710 (also called the Long Beach Freeway) goes from the Port of Los Angeles north along the Los Angeles River to East Los Angeles. Here, it continues north away from the river before ending near to the Interstate 10 at Alhambra. State Route 710 is short. It starts in Pasadena and goes north where it joins the Interstate 210. Together, these are about 23 miles (37 km) long.

Exits

Except when a letter is put before it, postmiles were measured on the road as it was in 1964, based on how it was at the time, and do not necessarily show the current mileage. R reflects a change in the route since then, M indicates a second change, L refers an overlap because of a correction or change, and T indicates postmiles that were temporary (for a full list of prefixes, see the list of postmile definitions). Segments that have not been built or are now controlled locally may be left out. The entire route is in Los Angeles County.
