[edit] History notes

[1] might be useful if I could find more (assuming the county actually did something).

The south part of the bus line was the Pacific Electric Railway's Los Angeles-Newport Beach-Balboa Line #55: [2][3]

Relinquishments
  • Long Beach by 1999: [4]
  • Downey in 2001: [5]
  • Pico Rivera in 2004: [6]
  • The part of Route 164 north of PM 8.8 was relinquished to the county in October 2006, except for the southbound lanes in Pasadena: [7][8][9]

For general information about relinquishment, see [10] (Los Angeles Business Journal, Local governments seek state roads to assure proper upkeep, September 6, 2004)
