					<description><![CDATA[US 99 parallels the Southern Pacific Railroad for a significant portion of its journey across the Great Central Valley. At times, it has to cross those tracks. Many of those crossings were the site of collisions, mostly by people trying to beat the train. They also slowed traffic down quite a bit.

					<description><![CDATA[Here at Grapevine, a small section of concrete is visible adjacent to the southbound lanes of I-5. This is a section of former US 99. A small color difference can be noticed between the two lanes that are visible. This difference is due to age. The lanes to the left were constructed in 1932 when &#8230; <a href="https://www.socalregion.com/featured-image-12-23-2019/" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="screen-reader-text">Featured Image &#8211; 12/23/2019</span> <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
