Really?  That seems odd to me, considering I-15 continues as CA-15, I-110 continues as CA-110....is this something new?

John:
But, those highways are/were going to be upgraded to interstates, and therefore their CA route #s are duplicates to provide continuity until they become/became interstates.

DrZoidberg:
Ah, I see.  Thank you for clarifying that.

CA 7 could easily be replaced with an realignment/extension of CA 115.  Or, if the road is upgraded to a freeway, it can be I-308.

V'Ger:
Wow, any -08 designation defintely sounds strange to me.
