I-10 through Redlands

In the Redlands area, Interstate 10 exit 77B is where it it meets SR 210 (the Foothill Freeway) and SR 330 to Running Springs. Tennessee Street is exit 77C. SR 38 east, Orange Street, is exit 79. University Street is exit 80. Ford Street and Redlands Boulevard are exit 81, Wabash Avenue is exit 82 and Yucaipa Boulevard is exit 83. Farther east, Oak Glen Road and Live Oak Canyon Road are exit 85, and County Line Road at exit 87 is near the Riverside County line. Give us the exit number and the direction, and the nearest cross street if you are off the freeway.

The 210 ends here

State Route 210, signed as the Foothill Freeway, runs east from Glendora and ends at I-10 in Redlands. East of I-215, the freeway follows the former SR 30 alignment through Highland and curves south to the I-10 interchange. Construction on a three-year project to add lanes from Sterling Avenue to San Bernardino Avenue began February 26, 2020 and was completed in September 2023. Trucks coming off the 210 meet I-10 traffic at the freeway's end.

Esri, the hospital and the University of Redlands

Esri, the mapping software company founded here in 1969, is the city's second-largest employer with 2,416 workers. Redlands Community Hospital is third with 1,847, per the city's 2025 financial report. Delivery trucks, ambulances and contractor equipment move through these sites. The University of Redlands is also at the end of Metrolink's Arrow service, which began in 2022.

Citrus history, rail history

For almost 75 years Redlands was the center of the largest navel orange region in the world. By the late 1930s more than 15,000 acres of citrus groves surrounded the city. The last packing house, Redlands Foothill Grove, closed in 2023. Pacific Electric and Southern Pacific once hauled freight to the Sunkist packing plant at Redlands Heights. BNSF applied in 2007 to abandon its branch line east of downtown.

Mentone and the east side

Wikipedia's Redlands article places the Lockheed Propulsion Company plant in Mentone. It also notes a trestle north of Mentone that washed out in a 1938 flood and was never replaced. If your load is oversized or has an escort, say so on the call.

East toward Yucaipa

We take calls east on I-10 past Yucaipa Boulevard (exit 83) and Calimesa Boulevard (exit 88). The county line sits in between, so tell us the exit and the direction. We cannot predict conditions on mountain roads, so tell us what you see.
