71 Freeway

If you want to visit Chino Hills, this is the freeway you have to go through. They have stop lights on this freeways also. The freeway is only two lanes. During rush hour, this freeway can get pretty busy and slow. But besides during the rush hour, there isn’t any traffic much on this freeway.

This «freeway» is the definition of flustercluck. There is no way around it if you are trying to get to and from Winco, or the Shoppes at Chino Hills, or the Chik Fil A, which is what a Real Housewife of Covina would most likely be travelling to Chino Hills for in the first place. Sadly, although I adore said shopping areas, I end up avoiding them because of the 71. Boo.
In addition, I am unaware of any shortcut or side street alternative, and because I rarely leave Covina, West Covina, Glendora, and San Dimas, I worry about becoming hopelessly lost trying to find one. (I once spent 2 hours utterly lost 2.2 miles from my home on Holt Boulevard in Pomona, so trust me, I know of what I speak about here.)
The 71 should be avoided at all costs at rush hour. I once spent 45 minutes on the 2 lane portion that goes from Pomona to the 57 in San Dimas, which should never be described as a Freeway in any way, shape or form.
Good luck and Godspeed!

hmm, this freeway is kinda small. wait, the freeway is ending. now it’s a 4-​lane road with a stoplight. wait, now it’s a freeway again, but it’s only 4 lanes. wait, the freeway is ending again. now it’s a parking lot all the way to the 91.

Bad place to be at rush hour. It often gets backed up coming down the hill from the 57 fry out of San Dimas. I often post when it is backed up because I can see it from my windows. I often see big rigs pulled over at the bottom of the hill its not a safe place to pull over. Be aware of brake lights when making the transition.

This freeway is a mixed bag. We take it in a vanpool at 615 — 625 south to th 60 and it’s fine. But going home its a mess because of that damn light that people have to turn at. They need to make a bridge for people living in the area! It takes twice the time going back and sometimes Waze says to take the 57 as an alternate!
