Today’s photo was taken in 2012 and is one half of a section of former expressway. It was bypassed in the 1970’s and is located in Region 3. Where is it?
Answer for #1:
The photo shows a section of former US 99 known as Floyd Lane between Bowman Road and Sunset Hills Drive in Tehama County just south of Cottonwood. The concrete dates to the late 1910’s and was bypassed about 1940.
