Legal definition

The original definition for the Corona Freeway, as named by the State Highway Commission on July 23 1958, stated that it was "Routes 71, 91, and 15 from Route 10 West of Pomona to Route 215".^[1]
This legal definition has been amended twice: First in 1990, the California Assembly passed Concurrent Resolution 125, Chapter 78, renaming I-15 between the San Diego County Line (which is further south from Interstate 215) and Bundy Canyon Road near Lake Elsinore as the Temecula Valley Freeway.^[2]
Then in 1993, the California Assembly passed legislation officially designating California State Route 71 as a part of the Chino Valley Freeway.^[3] However, the name "Corona Freeway" is, confusingly, sometimes still applied to this portion of SR 71; despite the change, guide signs on I-10 eastbound and SR 57 southbound at the Kellogg Interchange in Pomona still refer to SR 71 as the "Corona Freeway".
