California State Route 371 is a short connector from CA-79 near Aguanga in the USA to CA-74 near Anza. It is a heavily used shortcut from southwestern Riverside County to the Coachella Valley via CA-74. This was part of CA-71 until 1973, when CA-79 and CA-71 were co-signed from Aguanga to Temecula. In 1974, the portion of CA-71 from Temecula to Corona along I-15's current alignment was deleted and the orphaned route from Aguanga to Anza was re-signed as CA-371.
Before 2003, the intersection with CA-79 was a very dangerous one, as northbound CA-79 traffic had to stop at a stop sign and there was no such sign for southbound CA-79 traffic or for CA-371 traffic headed towards its western terminus. Now, there are stop signs in every direction at that intersection.
