Colorado Boulevard

Colorado Boulevard (or Colorado Street) is a major east–west street in Southern California. It runs from Griffith Park in Los Angeles east through Glendale, the Eagle Rock section of Los Angeles, Pasadena, and Arcadia, ending in Monrovia. The full route was once various state highways but is now locally maintained in favor of the parallel Ventura Freeway (CA-134) and Foothill Freeway (I-210).

West end

Colorado Street begins at Interstate 5 (Golden State Freeway) as a short freeway spur, originally carrying State Route 134 until it was moved north onto the Ventura Freeway. After crossing the Los Angeles River, there are two interchanges — with Edenhurst Avenue and San Fernando Road - before it becomes a surface street. At the second interchange it enters Glendale.

At the east border of Glendale, Colorado Street becomes Colorado Boulevard as it crosses State Route 2 (Glendale Freeway) into Los Angeles (specifically, the neighborhood of Eagle Rock). Another short freeway spur splits west of the intersection with Figueroa Street, heading northeast to the Ventura Freeway. This spur also carried SR 134 after the Ventura Freeway was built to the east but before it was built west of the split with the spur. After crossing Figueroa Street, Colorado Boulevard splits from Linda Vista Avenue and then passes over the Arroyo Seco on the Colorado Street Bridge into Pasadena.

Missouri Route 248

Route 248 is a highway in southwest Missouri. Its eastern terminus is at U.S. Route 65 in Branson. Its western terminus is at Route 76/Route 86/Route 112 in Cassville.

Route description

Route 248 begins at a diverging diamond interchange with U.S. Route 65 at the northern terminus of Business US 65. The highway proceeds west through northern Branson as the Shepherd of the Hills Expressway, which despite its name is a four-lane boulevard with no controlled-access interchanges. It eventually turns north as a two-lane highway and leaves Branson (Shepherd of the Hills Expressway continues westward as a separate highway from an intersection near Kirby Van Burch's theater). North of Branson, it intersects Route 465. Seven miles north of Branson, it begins a five mile (8 km) concurrency with U.S. Route 160. At Reeds Spring Junction, the road leaves US 160 and begins a short concurrency (about one mile) with Route 13.

Route 248 continues west to Reeds Spring, where it joins Routes 265 and 413. The three roads will be united to Galena. This section of highway is a windy, hilly, two-lane highway making switchbacks through the Ozark Mountains. The entire section of highway is marked with no-passing stripes. At Galena is the Y-Bridge, placed on the National Register of Historic Places (closed to vehicles). Just north of the bridge is the western terminus of Route 176. Route 248/265/413 turns west, crossing James River. Route 248 then leaves the concurrency, heading into downtown Galena. The highway then leaves Galena on a northwesterly direction.
