Glenn Anderson Freeway
Interstate 105 is the designation for two tertiary interstate routes.
California
Interstate 105 in southern California, also known as the Century Freeway and the Glenn Anderson Freeway, is the newest interstate highway to be constructed in the Los Angeles metropolitan area. It is 17.3 miles long and its primary purpose is to connect Interstate 5 to Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). Much of I-105 is actually built below ground in a "ditch," as several Los Angeles suburbs did not want another above-ground freeway passing through their city limits. The MTA "Green Line" trolley tracks run along the 105's median for much of the road's length.
The western terminus of I-105 is at its junction with Interstate 405 in El Segundo near LAX; the eastern terminus is at the junction with Interstate 605 in Norwalk. I-105 doesn't actually reach its parent route, Interstate 5, but comes close.
Interstate 105 opened in October 1993 and cost $2.3 billion.

Oregon
Interstate 105 in Oregon is a short interstate spur route of Interstate 5 located between Eugene and Springfield. The western terminus of I-105 is at the interchange with the north-south Delta Highway (unnumbered freeway); the eastern terminus is with I-5 but the freeway continues east through Springfield as Oregon State Route 126 for several miles.
