'''Interstate 105''' ('''I-105''', locally referred to as '''the 105''') is an east–west [[List of auxiliary Interstate Highways|auxiliary Interstate Highway]] in the [[Greater Los Angeles]] urban area of [[Southern California]]. It runs from [[California State Route 1|State Route'''&nbsp;'''1]] (SR'''&nbsp;'''1) near [[El Segundo, California|El Segundo]] and [[Los Angeles International Airport]] (LAX) to Studebaker Road in the [[Norwalk, California|City of Norwalk]]. It is commonly known as the '''Century Freeway''' after [[Century Boulevard]] which it parallels, and also officially known as the '''Glenn Anderson Freeway''' after the late congressman [[Glenn M. Anderson]] who advocated for its construction.<ref>{{cite web |author=Jeanne Bonfilio Issue Date: 04/2008 |url=http://www.dot.ca.gov/dist07/Publications/Inside7/story.php?id=203 |title=Inside Seven - Caltrans, District 7 - Monthly Newsletter |publisher=Dot.ca.gov |access-date=January 26, 2013 |archive-date=October 13, 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121013112836/http://www.dot.ca.gov/dist07/Publications/Inside7/story.php?id=203 |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.roadstothefuture.com/I-105_Century_Fwy.html |title=I-105 Glenn Anderson Freeway (Century Freeway) |publisher=Roadstothefuture.com |access-date=January 26, 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.art-poetry.info/id16.html |title=Road: Century Freeway Project |publisher=Art-poetry.info |access-date=January 26, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120324041903/http://www.art-poetry.info/id16.html |archive-date=March 24, 2012 |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref name=":0">{{cite web|url=http://www.oac.cdlib.org/findaid/ark:/13030/kt829040j1/ |title=The Finding Aid of the Century Freeway records 0228 |publisher=Oac.cdlib.org |access-date=January 26, 2013}}</ref>

==Route description==
[[File:Los Angeles - Echangeur autoroute 110 105.JPG|thumb|left|The [[Judge Harry Pregerson Interchange]] with the [[Harbor Freeway]] (I-110)]]

The entirety of I-105 is defined in section 405 of the [[California Codes|California Streets and Highways Code]] as '''Route 105''', and that the highway is from "Pershing Drive near [[El Segundo, California|El Segundo]] to [[Interstate 605|Route 605]]".<ref name="CSHC405">{{Cite web|url=https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displaySection.xhtml?lawCode=SHC&sectionNum=405.|title=Section 405|work=California Streets and Highways Code|publisher=California Office of Legislative Counsel|location=Sacramento|access-date=August 17, 2025}}</ref>

Route 105 was never fully constructed as it is defined. Currently, the western terminus of I-105 is at [[Sepulveda Boulevard]] ([[California State Route 1|SR&nbsp;1]]) and [[Imperial Highway]] on the southern edge of [[Los Angeles International Airport]] (LAX), near the [[El Segundo, California|El Segundo]]–[[Los Angeles]] line. Motorists can still continue west via Imperial Highway over conventional roadway to Pershing Drive. [[Caltrans]] actually set Route 105's [[mile 0]] along Imperial Highway about {{Convert|0.5|mi|km}} west of SR&nbsp;1,<ref name="SR105 PM map">{{cite web|url=https://postmile.dot.ca.gov/PMQT/PostmileQueryTool.html?type=C&mode=L&lat=33.931350&long=-118.404907&lat2=33.914298&long2=-118.099316|title=Route 10S: Postmile LA R0.00 to LA R18.14|website=Postmile Services Postmile Query Tool|publisher=Caltrans|accessdate=March 30, 2025}}</ref> but that segment is neither signed as part of I-105 or included in the [[Federal Highway Administration]] (FHWA)'s Interstate Highway route logs.<ref name="FHWA"/<ref name=fhwa-nhs /> Caltrans does not have any intention to adopt Imperial Highway further west to Pershing Drive as part of the state highway system or construct an extension of I-105 over it. A portion of undeveloped land south of this section of Imperial Highway exists to facilitate a potential extension of the freeway.

East of Sepulveda Boulevard, I-105 intersects with [[Interstate 405 (California) |I-405]] (San Diego Freeway) at the [[Lennox, California|Lennox]]–[[Hawthorne, California|Hawthorne]] line, then continues east near the northern city limits of Hawthorne and the southern city limits of [[Inglewood, California|Inglewood]]. Upon reaching the [[Harbor Gateway, Los Angeles|Harbor Gateway]] neighborhood of Los Angeles, I-105 intersects with [[Interstate 110 (California)|I-110]] at the five-level [[Judge Harry Pregerson Interchange]]. I-105 continues east into [[Willowbrook, California|Willowbrook]] before entering the city of [[Lynwood, California|Lynwood]], where it has a four-level interchange with [[Interstate 710 (California) |I-710]] and crosses the [[Los Angeles River]]. I-105 then runs through [[Paramount, California|Paramount]] before entering [[Downey, California|Downey]]. In Downey, I-105 intersects with [[Lakewood Boulevard]] ([[California State Route 19|SR'''&nbsp;'''19]]). I-105 then enters [[Norwalk, California|Norwalk]], where it meets with [[Interstate 605 (California) |I-605]]. Although Route 105's aforementioned state legal definition sets its eastern terminus at I-605,<ref name="CSHC405"/> the [[HOV lanes]] extend approximately {{Convert|0.3|mi|km}} further east to an [[at-grade intersection]] with Studebaker Road; this segment is also included in both state and federal records.<ref name="SR105 PM map"/><ref name=fhwa-nhs />

The freeway never intersects its parent route, [[Interstate 5 in California|I-5]]. I-105 complies with numbering conventions by intersecting other auxiliary routes of I-5 that do intersect I-5, namely I-405 and I-605.

Much of the length of the Century Freeway runs parallel to Imperial Highway. It also runs parallel to (and {{Convert|1|mi|km|abbr=on}} south of) [[Century Boulevard]], from which its original name is derived. Century Boulevard, in turn, is named for its position equivalent to [[Los Angeles streets, 41-250#100th Street|100th Street]] in the Los Angeles grid.

The [[Los Angeles Metro Rail]] [[C Line (Los Angeles Metro)|C Line]] runs in the median of nearly the entire length of I-105. The C Line's eastern terminus is at [[Norwalk station (Los Angeles Metro)|Norwalk]], at the interchange between I-105 and I-605. {{Convert|2|mi|km|abbr=on}} from the western end of the freeway, the C Line separates onto its own right-of-way at [[Aviation Boulevard]] before turning north towards [[LAX/Metro Transit Center|the LAX area]], where a future [[LAX Automated People Mover|people mover]] connecting Metro Rail to airport terminals is scheduled to open in 2026.

I-105 is part of the [[California Freeway and Expressway System]],<ref name="cafes">{{CAFESystem}}</ref> and is part of the [[National Highway System (United States)|National Highway System]],<ref name=fhwa-nhs>{{FHWA NHS map|region=losangeles|access-date=October 1, 2017}}</ref> a network of highways that are considered essential to the country's economy, defense, and mobility by the [[Federal Highway Administration]].<ref name=NHS-FHWA>{{FHWA NHS}}</ref>

==History==

[[File:Green line platform at Willowbrook (Los Angeles Metro station).JPG|thumb|right|250px|[[C Line (Los Angeles Metro)|Metro C Line]] platform at [[Willowbrook/Rosa Parks station]], which lies between the east and westbound lanes of I-105]]

===Early planning===
I-105 was an integral part of a [[Caltrans]] 1960s master plan for the [[Southern California freeways|Southern California freeway system]], but did not open until 1993. The right-of-way was included on several early highway plans since at least 1947, although it was not named the "Century Freeway" until 1956, and was numbered Route 42. In 1965, the Century Freeway was added to the state system originated at State Route 1 ([[Sepulveda Boulevard]]) east to [[Central Avenue (Los Angeles)|Central Avenue]] in the City of Los Angeles along an alignment very near to the current right-of-way.<ref>{{Cite web|url = http://www.cahighways.org/105-112.html|title = California Highways: Routes 105 through 112|access-date = 2015-01-07|website = California Highways: Routes 105 through 112|last = Faigin|first = Daniel P.}}</ref> The current route was added to the Interstate system in 1968.

===Design and local opposition===
The route was designed between 1968 and 1972 by Caltrans District 7, under the direction of Design Chief Sid Elicks.<ref name=":0" /> However, opposition from some of the communities through which the right-of-way would pass slowed the process and led to some reroutings. Many factors contributed to the delay. The growth of the [[environmentalism|environmental]] movement in the 1960s created resistance to new freeway construction. Fiscal difficulties brought about by the 1971 [[Sylmar earthquake]] and the California [[tax revolt]] of the late 1970s further hampered Caltrans' construction efforts.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.craftypixel.com/105freewayconstruction.htm |title=Photo Exhibit: Constructing Interstate 105 |publisher=Craftypixel.com |access-date=January 26, 2013}}</ref>

The major source of resistance to the freeway's construction was [[grassroots|community opposition]] and the side effects of these demands. By the early 1970s, most of the areas in the freeway's path (and thus slated to be demolished) were predominantly [[African-American]]. Resentment over previous freeway projects' effects on other black communities resulted in significant modifications to the original route. Most cities along the way, weary of the noise and visual blight created by elevated freeways, demanded that the route be built far below grade in a "trench". Also, another source for resistance to the freeway's construction was that much of the I-105 path was going to be built in low income, high crime neighborhoods, which also delayed the freeway's construction until the crime in the areas went down.{{citation needed|date=December 2023}}

[[Norwalk, California|Norwalk]] was opposed to the freeway's proposed route through its city center, and blocked the freeway from reaching its intended terminus at the [[Interstate 5 in California|Santa Ana Freeway (I-5)]]; however, Caltrans had already decided to abandon that section due to the inability of the severely congested Santa Ana Freeway to accommodate any more traffic.{{citation needed|date=December 2023}}

===''Keith v. Volpe''===
In 1972, community opposition resulted in a federal lawsuit, ''Keith v. Volpe,'' being filed, charging a violation of various civil rights protections and the [[National Environmental Policy Act]] (NEPA). An important figure in the freeway's history was [[Harry Pregerson]], a [[United States federal judge]] who presided over the lawsuit concerning the freeway's construction and chose to continue presiding over the case despite being promoted to a higher level court.<ref>Henry Weinstein, [https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1993-10-15-me-46006-story.html "A Concrete Accomplishment : Transit: Long-planned Interstate 105 opens with gala festivities. Amid the tumult, Judge Harry Pregerson takes pride in job-training and housing programs he helped ensure in the freeway corridor."] ''[[Los Angeles Times]]'', October 15, 1993.</ref> The interchange with I-110 is named the [[Judge Harry Pregerson Interchange]] in his honor.<ref>{{cite web |author=Hertzberg |url=http://info.sen.ca.gov/pub/01-02/bill/asm/ab_0101-0150/acr_142_bill_20020425_enrolled.html |title=ACR 142 Assembly Concurrent Resolution |publisher=Info.sen.ca.gov |access-date=January 26, 2013 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://archive.today/20120630025745/http://info.sen.ca.gov/pub/01-02/bill/asm/ab_0101-0150/acr_142_bill_20020425_enrolled.html |archive-date=June 30, 2012 |df=mdy-all }}</ref> In 1972, Judge Pregerson enjoined the further development of the freeway until it has complied with the requirements of NEPA, the [[California Environmental Quality Act|California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)]], the [[Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1968|Federal-Aid Highway Act]], and the [[Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Act (1970)|Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Act of 1970]].

In 1979, this lawsuit resulted in a Consent Decree, amended in 1981, which imposed several conditions on the development of the freeway, including additional public hearings, preparation of an environmental report, alterations to the design to reduce lanes and intersections, improve carpooling and provide for a transitway, which became the [[Los Angeles Metro Rail]] Green Line, now known as the [[C Line (Los Angeles Metro)|C Line]]. A portion of the right-of-way was also to be constructed below grade to buffer adjacent areas from the effects of [[Roadway noise|traffic noise]]. After construction began in the 1980s, failure to perform a complete survey of the area's [[groundwater]] deposits, combined with the {{convert|20|–|30|ft|m|adj=on}} below-grade trench through the city of [[Downey, California|Downey]], resulted in buckling and cracking along the eastern portions of the route. At one point, a giant sinkhole opened in the Bellflower Boulevard on-ramp. This resulted in the construction of an elaborate pump system along the freeway between the interchanges with [[Interstate 710 (California)|I-710]] and [[Interstate 605 (California)|I-605]].

===Century Freeway Housing Program===
A significant aspect of the ''Keith v. Volpe'' Consent Decree was the requirement that the housing removed to construct the freeway be replaced, leading to the creation of the [[Century Housing Corporation|Century Freeway Housing Program]] within the [[California Department of Housing and Community Development]].

====Notable demolished homes and buildings====
{{Unreferenced section|date=January 2018}}
The [[Hawthorne, California|Hawthorne]] childhood home of [[Brian Wilson|Brian]], [[Carl Wilson|Carl]] and [[Dennis Wilson]] of [[the Beach Boys]] was demolished in the mid-1980s to make way for the freeway, as was the house across the street where their bandmate [[David Marks (musician)|David Marks]] grew up. In 2005, the [[Beach Boys Historic Landmark]] was built on the former site of the Wilson brothers' home and declared a California Historic Landmark.

The birthplace of former [[Metallica]] bassist [[Ron McGovney]]'s house stood directly in the path of the route nearby to I-605 in [[Downey, California|Downey]].

Another home in Downey, where siblings [[Richard Carpenter (musician)|Richard]] and [[Karen Carpenter]] grew up before forming the musical duo [[the Carpenters]], was also razed for I-105.

===Post-construction===
[[File:Interstate_105_California,_Carpool_Flyover_ramps,_Dec_2014.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Westbound view along I-105 heading towards Vermont Ave, through the I-110 interchange]]

Throughout the difficulties, Congressman [[Glenn M. Anderson]] ([[Democratic Party (United States)|D]]-[[San Pedro, California|San Pedro]]) tirelessly advocated for the route's construction, making claims it would provide congestion relief along [[Century Boulevard|Century]], Manchester, and Firestone Boulevards and the [[Imperial Highway]], as well as relieving pressure on the [[Santa Monica Freeway|Santa Monica]] ([[Interstate 10 in California|I-10]]) and [[Interstate 405 (California)|San Diego]] ([[Interstate 405 (California)|I-405]]) Freeways for travelers between [[Downtown Los Angeles]] and [[LAX]].{{citation needed|date=June 2019}} After Anderson's death in 1994, Caltrans honored him by renaming the freeway in his honor. The route's original name, "Century Freeway", is still used on a number of maps.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1996-04-19-me-60325-story.html |title=The Freeway Numbers Game|newspaper=[[Los Angeles Times]] |first=Aaron |last=Curtiss |date=April 19, 1996 |access-date=4 July 2016}}</ref>

The freeway was originally signed with El Segundo as its westbound [[control city]]; however, in recent years, many of the El Segundo signs have been replaced and/or covered with "LAX Airport" signage due to the western terminus' proximity to [[Los Angeles International Airport]].

Shortly before opening, filmmakers had access to use the empty freeway for a number of weeks to film the 1994 motion picture ''[[Speed (1994 film)|Speed]]''.

===Interstate 105 (1964–68)===
{{Further|Interstate 105 (California 1964–1968)}}

Previously, the I-105 designation was used for [[U.S. Route 101 (California)|U.S. Route'''&nbsp;'''101]] (the [[Santa Ana Freeway]], US'''&nbsp;'''101) from [[Interstate 5 (California)|I-5]] (the [[Golden State Freeway]]) at the [[East Los Angeles Interchange]] to the connection to [[Interstate 10 (California)|I-10]] (the [[San Bernardino Freeway]]; this connection had been [[Interstate 110 (California)|I-110]]); it went back to US'''&nbsp;'''101 in 1968.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cahighways.org/105-112.html |title=CA-Highways 105-112 |publisher=Cahighways.org |access-date=January 26, 2013}}</ref>

==Future==
There are plans to convert the existing [[HOV lanes]] into [[high-occupancy toll]] (HOT) lanes. Segment 1 of the project between Sepulveda Bouelvard and Central Avenue is scheduled to be completed in 2028. {{As of|2025}}, both segment 2 between Central Avenue and I-710, and segment 3 between I-710 and Studebaker Road, are in the design and engineering phase.<ref name="LA Express Lanes">{{cite web |title=I-105 ExpressLanes Project|url=https://www.metro.net/projects/i105-expresslanes/|publisher=Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority|access-date=May 4, 2025}}</ref>
