Gateway Drive is the Madera stretch of
Golden State Highway. Much of CA 99 is
followed by its previous routing as US 99.
There still are present a few signs designating Gateway Drive as
“Business CA 99.” |

without the exit number. |

Shaw Avenue, formerly CA 168 from CA 41
to Clovis Avenue, is one of Fresno’s busiest thoroughfares second only to
Herndon Avenue two miles to the north.
The traffic lights were synchronized between Blackstone Avenue and
Golden State Highway by time I was of temporary Fresno residence in Summer
2004. The interchange has been
scheduled for major upgrades for around 2006-2008. |

Jensen Avenue (access to CA 41 North and
South) was the only way to access CA 41 before 1998 when he
freeway was extended to about two miles south of CA 99. The 99/41 intersection is not a full
intersection, meaning that a driver may not be able to change directly from
one freeway to the other without using surface streets. Thus, Jensen Avenue remains the only means
of meeting CA 41 South from CA 99—only CA 41 North can be directly
accessed. Freeway CA 180 (which CA 99
meets several miles to the north) serves as a freeway link between CA 99 and
CA 41, providing interchange in all directions. Yet, as the second picture to the left
suggests, I would recommend use of Jensen due to the fact that CA 41 lies
only ½ mile to the west immediately after exiting CA 99. |
