Page "California State Route 14" Paragraph 1

Linked with US 395, this road connects Los Angeles with such places as Mammoth Mountain, Mono Lake, Yosemite National Park and Reno, Nevada.

Route 14 was part of U. S. Route 6 prior to truncation in 1964, when U. S. 6 was a coast-to-coast route from Long Beach to Provincetown, Massachusetts.

The non-freeway segment of SR 14 from Silver Queen Road north of Rosamond to Mojave is known as Sierra Highway, as is the old routing between Interstate 5 and Silver Queen Road where SR 14 has been moved to a newer freeway alignment.

Portions of Route 14 remain signed with names associated with US 6, including Midland Trail, Theodore Roosevelt Highway and Grand Army of the Republic Highway.

This route is part of the California Freeway and Expressway System.
