State Route 7

California State Route 7

California 7 is a short expressway between the Calexico East International Border Crossing and Interstate 8 in the Imperial Valley. It is designed as a fast route between the border crossing and the Interstate Highway System that bypasses Calexico and El Centro.

The State Route 7 designation was previously used in two other instances, both in Southern California: Sepulveda Boulevard was signed as California 7 until it was replaced with Interstate 405 (San Diego Freeway), and the Long Beach Freeway was known as California 7 until it was redesignated as Interstate 710 in the 1980s.
