TFA blurb review
U.S. Route 101 is a north–south highway traversing the states of California, Oregon, and Washington on the West Coast of the United States and runs for over 1,500 mi along the Pacific Ocean. It was established in 1926 and followed several historic routes linking California's early Spanish settlements and a later coastal highway in Oregon. Several sections were rebuilt in the mid-20th century to eliminate curves and address traffic congestion, primarily in California. The highway's southern terminus is at a major interchange with Interstate 5 (I-5) and I-10 in Los Angeles. It notably traverses the San Francisco Bay Area as a freeway and the city of San Francisco on city streets to reach the Golden Gate Bridge. In Washington, US 101 travels north, east and then south around the Olympic Peninsula to its northern terminus in Tumwater, near Olympia. Several portions of the highway are designated as scenic byways, and it serves three national parks: Pinnacles, Redwood, and Olympic.
