Southbound signage at the end of the freeway at
the Gaffey Street traffic signal. Oddly I-110 is indicated as
progressing southerly along Gaffey Street. About a mile of Gaffey
Street, from this intersection southerly is indeed maintained by Caltrans
as State Highway 101, however
since Gaffey is an at-grade arterial, it could hardly be considered an interstate highway. |

View as Interstate 110 south descends into a
trench at the Vernon Street interchange. The Harbor Freeway is
situated below grade for just over a mile between Vernon Street and 54th
Street. Evidently, when the HOV lanes were constructed on the 110
Freeway, it was deemed to disruptive/expensive to widen the freeway
trench; so a four lane HOV structure was constructed and towers over the
general purpose lanes for about a mile. I-110 is one of Los Angeles County's most impressive
freeways. |
