California State Route 134

Encyclopedia : C : CA : CAL : California State Route 134


State Route 134, also known as the Ventura Freeway, runs from U.S. Route 101/State Route 170 in North Hollywood to Interstate 210 in Pasadena. The road is the main connector from the San Fernando Valley and points north to the San Gabriel Valley and points east. The interchange with I-210 in Pasadena is an incomplete one, as the State Route 710 freeway that heads south dead-ends at California Blvd. Residents of South Pasadena and Alhambra have blocked efforts to extend Interstate 710 north from its current end at Valley Boulevard north of Interstate 10. Signs on SR 134 and I-210 refer to the SR 710 stub as TO State Route 110, because exiting left on California Blvd and turning right on Arroyo Parkway will take you directly to SR 110, which is Pasadena's only direct freeway link to Downtown Los Angeles.

The Interstate 5 offramp at Colorado St. is actually old SR 134, and there are still mileposts that refer to it as such. Old SR 134 followed Colorado St. through Glendale and rejoined the present-day alignment in Eagle Rock via a long onramp. This part of SR 134 was called the Colorado Freeway.
