👉 Roseville, California in the context of California State Route 65

State Route 65 (SR 65) is a north-south state highway in the U.S. state of California that consists of two non-contiguous segments in the Central Valley. The route, originally known as the Eastside Freeway, was envisioned as a major freeway following the east side of the valley near the foothills of the Sierra Nevada, similar to the Westside Freeway (Interstate 5) on the opposite side of the valley. Of the estimated 300 miles (480 km), only 95 miles (153 km) were constructed due to funding issues, environmental concerns, and low population growth.

The southern segment begins at SR 99, near Bakersfield and terminates at SR 198 near Exeter. It also serves the communities of Oildale, Ducor, Terra Bella, Porterville, Strathmore, and Lindsay. The northern segment begins at Interstate 80 in Roseville and terminates at SR 70 at Olivehurst. It also serves the communities of Rocklin, Lincoln, and Wheatland. If built, the center segment would serve the communities of Ivanhoe, Reedley, Sanger, Waterford, and Oakdale.
