==Transportation== [[File:San Bernardino Valley, San Gabriel, SB Mountains, I-215.jpg|thumb| View looking westward at the western portion of the San Bernardino and San Gabriel Mountains, with the [[San Bernardino Valley]] to the left, with [[San Bernardino, California|San Bernardino]] itself in the foreground. The Foothill Freeway ([[Interstate 210 (California)|I-210]]) runs toward the horizon, while [[Interstate 15 in California|I-15]] runs through [[Cajon Pass]] to the right.]] There are a number of important freeways that cross the Transverse Ranges, such as (from west to east) US-101, [[Interstate 5 in California|I-5]] at [[Tejon Pass]], [[California State Route 14|SR 14]] at [[Soledad Pass]], and [[Interstate 15 in California|I-15]] at [[Cajon Pass]]. These highways link [[Southern California]] with places to the north and northeast like [[San Francisco]] and [[Las Vegas, Nevada|Las Vegas]], respectively. With the exception of several high passes on less-traveled [[California State Route 33|SR 33]], [[California State Route 2|SR 2]], [[California State Route 330|SR 330]]. [[California State Route 18|SR 18]] and [[California State Route 38|SR 38]], none of these passes are at high elevations, with Cajon Pass being at a modest 4,190 ft (1,277 m) [[above mean sea level]]; this means that [[snow]] is less of a factor here than in the moderate to high mountain passes to the north like [[Donner Pass]]. Still sometimes, heavy snowfall can snarl traffic on Tejon and Cajon Pass, the higher two of the three freeway passes. I-5 and I-15 commonly experience heavy traffic over their mountainous route across these mountains.{{Citation needed|date=January 2021}}
