It connects State Route 198 in Tulare County to State Route 180 in Fresno County. It runs through the city of Woodlake and the small unincorporated towns of Elderwood, Badger, and Pinehurst. Roughly 95 percent of SR 245 traverses rural areas. North of Avenue 364 in Tulare County, SR 245 is synonymous with Millwood Drive.
Route description
The route begins at State Route 198 in Tulare County. It then heads north and intersects State Route 216 in Woodlake and County Route J27 amid farmland in the county. The route continues to meet State Route 201 in Elderwood. After several miles through Tulare County, it crosses into Fresno County, where it meets its north end at State Route 180.
SR 245 is not part of the National Highway System,[1] a network of highways that are considered essential to the country's economy, defense, and mobility by the Federal Highway Administration.[2]
History
Template:Infobox road small Template:Infobox road small From 1963 to 1965, Route 245 was originally defined to run from Interstate 5 to SR 60 in the Los Angeles area, as a temporary route during construction in Downtown Los Angeles.[3]
Present-day SR 245 was originally numbered Route 69 during the 1964 renumbering.[4] SR 69 was then renumbered to SR 245 in 1972 due to the continual theft of SR 69 signs.[3][4]
