Escondido Freeway / San Bernardino Freeway
Runs from I-15 near Temecula to I-15 near Devore.

215 is somewhat new to being a full freeway and Interstate. It still had a few expressway segments in the Moreno Valley area until the mid 1990's. One such intersection was at Allesandro Blvd, a former alignment of US 60. I-215 used to be I-15 for a time, then it became State 215, then I-215.

Freeway through Perris. This section is from the late 1950's.

Section of the San Bernardino Freeway (I-215) just north of I-10. This section will undergo radical changes over the next few years.

Typical stretch of the San Bernardino Freeway through San Bernardino. Here, as also in the last photo, smog mars the view of the mountains to the north.
