California State Route 120, in northern California, is the end of the freeways heading east from the San Francisco Bay Area. It begins in the west intersecting Interstate 5 to extend Interstate 205 through Manteca. This section is referred to as "the 120 bypass". In east Manteca the freeway ends and becomes a highway which continues to head east through Escalon, Oakdale and other various small towns. East of Oakdale there are no major cities for the 90 miles as it heads up into the Sierra Nevada mountains to Yosemite National Park. Once in Yosemite, it is known as "Tioga Pass Road" as that it travels through the Tioga Pass on its 45 mile journey to its eastern-most point at U.S. Highway 395.
