State Route 35 (SR 35) in the U.S. state of California, generally known as Skyline Boulevard, is a two-lane road running mostly along the ridge of the Santa Cruz Mountains from Highway 17 in Santa Clara County to San Francisco at State Route 1. Because of its high elevation and location, it is one of the few places on the southern portion of the San Francisco Peninsula from which the San Francisco Bay and the Pacific Ocean are both visible at the same time. It also provides scenic views of the Silicon Valley Metropolitan Area. A notable feature of Skyline Boulevard is historic Kings Mountain in Woodside. Skyline Blvd. offers views of Half Moon Bay along the Pacific Coast as it summits Kings Mountain. It was originally designated State Route 5, but this was changed with the creation of Interstate 5 in 1964, to avoid confusion. ==Route description== This route is part of the California Freeway and Expressway System〔(CA Codes (shc:250-257) )〕 and is eligible for the State Scenic Highway System.〔(CA Codes (shc:260-284) )〕 However, only the portion from the Santa Cruz-Santa Clara County line to the SR 92 junction is actually a state scenic highway. The highway begins at the junction of Summit Road and State Route 17. It follows Summit Road up until Bear Creek Road, which bears Route 35 for less than a mile until Skyline Boulevard is reached. It bears the name Skyline Boulevard for a majority of its route along the ridge of the Santa Cruz Mountains to the west of Silicon Valley, passing cities such as San Jose, Saratoga, and Palo Alto. The southern portion of the road, starting at Summit Road and ending at Black Road, is mostly a narrow and winding country road without a double-yellow line. From Black Road going north the road has been upgraded. The road reaches its highest elevation near Sanborn Skyline County Park at about 3,000 ft (914 m). The ridge that the road follows forms the border between Santa Cruz and Santa Clara counties. However, the boundary is so irregular that the road weaves in and out of the two counties. The ridgetop portion of the route ends at the junction with State Route 92,〔National Atlas of the United States, (Hydrologic Units (Watersheds) GIS data )〕 because this northern area of the Santa Cruz Mountains is a protected watershed owned by the San Francisco Water Department. Highway 35 is co-routed with SR 92 for 2 miles (3 km) east, descending towards Crystal Springs Reservoir, which it crosses on a causeway, and then joins Interstate 280 northbound for 6 miles (10 km). However, on the southbound side, Route 35 exists as a separate road to the west of the freeway between ''Bunker Hill Dr.'' and Route 92, as there is no connector road between 280 South and 92 West. Route 35 departs from 280 at the southern end of San Bruno, running to the west of the freeway, regaining the ridgetop separating South San Francisco and Daly City from Pacifica. It crosses State Route 1 in Daly City and in San Francisco, Skyline Boulevard ends and the highway briefly continues along Sloat Boulevard until it reaches its terminus when it intersects Highway 1 again at 19th Avenue. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「California State Route 35」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
