LA Freeways - The 605 North to Cajon Pass

Drivelapse video of several freeways in the Greater Los Angeles Metro area starting in Seal Beach from the 405 and heading northerly along the 605 (the San Gabriel River Freeway) to the 210 (the Foothill Freeway) and then finally easterly to the 15 (the Ontario Freeway) to the High Desert and Hesperia.

I would never forget the climb up to the Cajon pass, nice ride!

[@AsphaltPlanet1]

Cajon Pass is an awesome drive. Thanks for the comment.

Congrats on 4K Subscribers!

I always felt like Cajon Pass less like a pass since it ascends up onto the plateau of the high desert.

[@CrystalClearWith8BE]

Cajon Pass is a unique mountain pass of I-15 and is also an iconic Route 66 mountain pass too. Speaking of US routes, that mountain pass has former US 66/US 91/US 395 marked there.

Lovely Drive. Glad to See an HOV Lane with It! Great Job on the Video and Music Selection!

[@AsphaltPlanet1]

Thank you very much!

[@SirNilooo]

Whenever I get to the cajon pass I always take the exit on Devore rd and make a right onto what is known as the old route 66 to avoid the heavy traffic going up the pass. 😁

I wonder why there are no control cities listed on signs for I-605, like northbound is to Duarte & Baldwin park and southbound to seal beach as well as Long Beach

[@DWNY358]

I have often wondered why the 210 changes from being an interstate to a state highway. It seems the entire route is Interstate-worthy.

[@jayiiful]

Very nice drive!

[@AsphaltPlanet1]

Thank you! 👍

[@CrystalClearWith8BE]

What I found strange of I-605 is there are no location names under the highway shield, but instead says thru traffic. I'd say between Long Beach, Norwalk and Baldwin Park.

[@AsphaltPlanet1]

It certainly makes the 605 unique.

[@SlowedByMaple]

The Twin Cities also Doesn’t have a lot of Signs that have a Location Name or Control City.

[@CrystalClearWith8BE]

Don't forget the 407/ETR (excluding the extension) around the GTA.

[@markovic2018]

Personally, for I-605N, I would choose Pasadena/San Bernardino. Southbound would be Long Beach.

[@CrystalClearWith8BE]

@@markovic2018, a lot of cities I-605 pass through are suburbs. However, I like the way southbound I-605 should sign Long Beach because it's a satellite city of L.A..

[@RoadsOfAsiaBen]

Great drive! Have you seen 5 mph (10 km/h) exit ramp on Arroyo Seco Parkway (CA-110)? The 5 mph (10 km/h) exit ramp is located on York Boulevard (southbound only), Avenue 60, and Via Marisol (southbound only). You would have to slam your break to exit and traffic entering the Parkway must wait at the stop sign. This is due to Parkway opened in 1940 and those exit ramp has not been changed ever since.

[@AsphaltPlanet1]

I have. I have driven the Arooya Seco Parkway (it'll always be the Pasadena Freeway to me) several times.

[@RoadsOfAsiaBen]

@@AsphaltPlanet1 I noticed you didn't upload a new video two days ago. Did you run out of the video that you filmed?

[@AsphaltPlanet1]

@@RoadsOfAsiaBen I have lots of footage. Just taking a break.

I’ve been on interstate 15 in San Diego California but I wonder why interstate 215 doesn’t continue south of Murrieta. Why doesn’t interstate 215 continue south to state route 78 in Escondido. If interstate 215 continued to San Diego it would take traffic off interstate 15.

[@smith22]

Normally your vids are filled with interesting facts and stats. I really missed having those in this video. :( Hopefully they'll return in your next upload.

[@AsphaltPlanet1]

Sometimes I don't have as much to say about some roads as I do others. Thanks for the comment.

[@zaitunmatdiah6850]

Really Good video you made it!

[@AsphaltPlanet1]

Thanks!

[@MARINECORPS61992113]

605 never heard of it I guess that's because trucks usually don't take it to hit 15 north

[@theautomotivegabe]

0:41 did they just put up a new sign or is this old??

[@SlowedByMaple]

I Don’t See no Sign!

[@theautomotivegabe]

@@SlowedByMaple there was a sign on the southbound side of I-405 and it was an overhead sign I was wondering if it was new or not. It is @ the very beginning of the video

[@AsphaltPlanet1]

I don't think that is a new southbound sign. I think it was installed when they widened the 405 through Seal Beach a few years ago.

[@theautomotivegabe]

@@AsphaltPlanet1 oh ok why did they remove those southbound signs tho?

[@AsphaltPlanet1]

The old signs were in the way of the highway being widened.

[@tirkour2604]

nice, do highways in iowa.

[@christmashunter4573]

You really like to travel right?

[@AsphaltPlanet1]

I do.

I-605 is planning to be expanded in 2026-2031
