[edit] Route Summary

A28 begins in Grenada, connecting Grenada with Hornbrook via Montague. It is a flat, level route, and for this reason, was the original preferred routing for both US 99 and Interstate 5 through the area. In both instances, the routing was changed because of intense lobbying by officials in Yreka, who decried the fact that the major highway through the county would bypass the county seat. Thus, both highways ended up being built over far more rigorous terrain at a huge cost increase.

A28 serves the aforementioned three towns, as well as numerous homes and ranches along the way.
