Freeway and Rail Systems
Ontario reaps the benefits of the intersections of three major arteries of Southern California's dynamic freeway system: Interstate 10, Interstate 15 and State Route 60. The efficiency of this freeway system has been dramatically enhanced with the recent completion of the high-occupancy vehicle lane on Interstate - 10, augmenting its immediate trucking and air resources.
Ontario provides access to two major railways including:
- Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway
- Union Pacific Railway
Ports
Ontario also provides strategic access to the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach through its interconnected freeway and rail system.
