From the 1964 renumbering until 1984, SR 7 ran from San Pedro (Long Beach after 1964) north to Pasadena on the Long Beach Freeway. This had been State Route 15 from 1951 to 1964, renumbered to avoid a conflict with Interstate 15. It became Interstate 710 in 1984. The Harbor Freeway replaced the SR 11 with Interstate 110 in 1981. There is a 3-year separation between posting those two interstate signs.
