===Highways=== [[File:Old Town San Juan Capistrano, California (26026195495).jpg|thumb|right|Shops in downtown San Juan.]] [[File:Casa de Esperanza (cropped).jpg|thumb|right|The Casa de Esperanza is on the [[National Register of Historic Places listings in Orange County, California|National Register of Historic Places]].]] [[File:I-5 (CA).svg|27px|link=Interstate 5 in California]] [[Interstate 5 in California|Interstate 5]] (San Diego Freeway) has three interchanges completely located in the city (at Camino Capistrano, SR 74/Ortega Highway, and Junipero Serra Road), two interchanges partially located within the city (at SR 1/Camino las Ramblas (which is partially within [[Dana Point]]) as well as SR 73 (which is partially within [[Mission Viejo]]), and an additional northbound entrance ramp from Stonehill Drive and Camino Capistrano. [[File:California 1.svg|25px|link=California State Route 1]] [[California State Route 1|Pacific Coast Highway]] is one of the most notable state routes in California. It is often incorrectly referenced that SR 1 terminates in nearby [[Dana Point]] because the city borders the Pacific Ocean (unlike San Juan Capistrano). In reality, SR 1 terminates shortly after it junctions with Interstate 5, crossing within San Juan Capistrano city limits (although this is a few hundred feet away from the city limits of Dana Point). There is an official SR 1 terminus sign on a traffic light pole along the southbound lanes on SR 1 shortly after crossing under Interstate 5 which is within San Juan Capistrano city limits. [[File:California 73.svg|25px|link=California State Route 73]] [[California State Route 73]] (San Joaquin Hills Toll Road) has its southern terminus at I-5 in San Juan Capistrano. There are no exits along SR 73 in San Juan Capistrano other than its junction with Interstate 5. [[File:California 74.svg|25px|link=California State Route 74]] [[California State Route 74]] has its official western terminus at Interstate 5 in San Juan Capistrano. The city-maintained road that continues west as Ortega Highway originally terminated at Camino Capistrano in front of [[Mission San Juan Capistrano]]; however, interchange reconstruction that was completed in 2015 brought Ortega Highway to continue onto Del Obispo Street towards [[Dana Point]], with a right turn required to stay on the older portion of Ortega Highway.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.thecapistranodispatch.com/ortega-highway-construction-nearing-end/|title=Ortega Highway Construction Nearing End|date=August 19, 2015}}</ref> [[File:US 101 (CA historic).svg|27px|link=U.S. Route 101 in California#History]] The original route of U.S. 101 ran through downtown San Juan Capistrano on what is now Camino Capistrano. It was decommissioned when Interstate 5 was completed in the 1950s.
