West and East Morton Avenue together form the route's longest continuous stretch at 1.40 miles, just ahead of South Jaye Street's 1.24 miles. The route also briefly touches CA-190, signed East Poplar Avenue, even though it's classed as an ordinary secondary road here.

Tips for this specific route

• Recognize Plano Street bookending the drive. South Plano Street opens the route and North Plano Street closes it, combining for 1.27 miles under two name-halves of the same street.
• Settle into Morton Avenue as the route's longest continuous stretch. West and East Morton Avenue combine for 1.40 miles, edging out South Jaye Street's 1.24 miles.
• Briefly touch CA-190, signed East Poplar Avenue. It carries a state highway designation even though it's classed as an ordinary secondary road here.
• Expect a heavily right-turn route. 8 of the 10 turns are rights.
• Don't mistake the North Kessing Street corner for a single turn. It's actually two separate short turns back to back, left then immediately right onto West Morton Avenue.
