California State Route 87
|
|
Highway 87, the Guadalupe Freeway, legislatively deemed California State Route 87, is a north-south highway entirely within San José, California. Its name was changed from its former name, the Guadalupe Parkway in 2004 after its entire length was upgraded to a freeway. Its southern terminus is now on Highway 85, the West Valley Freeway; its northern terminus is on U.S. Highway 101, the Bayshore Freeway, just north of Norman Y. Mineta San José International Airport. The highway intersects with Interstate 280, the Junípero Serra Freeway, in Downtown San José. Oddly, it crosses Interstate 880, the Nimitz Freeway, without an interchange. For most of its length, especially in downtown, the highway follows the course of the Guadalupe River.
