California State Route 14 is a north-south state highway largely in the Mojave Desert of the U.S. State of California, also known as the High Desert, just east of the crest of the Sierra Nevada in its northern part. It connects U.S. Route 395 in Inyokern to Interstate 5 Golden State Freeway in Santa Clarita. With US 395 it connects the western part of Greater Los Angeles with such places as Reno, Nevada. While its southern part runs through the suburbanized and rural canyon areas that can have heavy commuter traffic, its northern section generally affords an attractive, stark view of the Sierra Nevada mountain range. It is in mostly desert terrain, so those who travel it should make the appropriate precautions for travel upon it, especially in the thinly-settled portions north of Mojave during the hot summers.

Prior to 1975

Route 14, known as the Antelope Valley Freeway south of the community of Mojave, is the designation for old U.S. Highway 6 between US-395 and Interstate 5 after California truncated US-6 at Bishop in 1963. Route 14 was also once used on the length of State Route 91 from Hermosa Beach to Anaheim along Artesia Bl and Lincoln Ave until 1964. The former routing south of and in Mojave is still known as Sierra Highway (Sierra Highway is also signed as unrelinquished State Route 14U in Santa Clarita). North of Mojave, State Route 14 is a segment of the trans-continental Midland Trail. As part of the former transcontinental US-6, non-freeway segments are also known as the Grand Army of the Republic Highway. The earliest section is completed in 1963 and the newest section is completed in 1975. The Antelope Valley Freeway is a freeway in Los Angeles and Kern counties in southern California. ...

This is an unfinished route, as the definition in the California Streets and Highways Code states that the route begins at Pacific Coast Hwy (PCH), near Sunset Blvd. in the Pacific Palisades area of Los Angeles and even though there is no right of way purchased there. Temescal Canyon Drive seems to be the actual south end of the route, but the wide road leading inland from PCH dead-ends in the Presbyterian Conference Grounds on the north side of Sunset Blvd approximately two miles inland from California State Route 1. The only proof that this proposal was considered is the mileposts on Route 14, which do not go to zero at I-5 at its present terminus, whereas the exit numbers do go to zero, which means that the segment between Route 1 and Route 5 will never be built.
