State Route 71 marker

State Route 71 (SR 71) is the Chino Valley Freeway, formerly the Corona Expressway and before then the Temescal Freeway, a freeway/highway of about 15 miles (24 km) in length located entirely within Southern California, United States. Contrary to its name, this highway is a limited-access freeway in San Bernardino and Riverside counties; in Los Angeles County it is only an expressway.

This route is part of the California Freeway and Expressway System and is eligible for the State Scenic Highway System. However, it is not designated as a scenic highway by Caltrans. Other names of this highway include the "Police Officer Daniel T. Fraembs Memorial Highway" for the segment within the City of Pomona (honoring a Pomona police officer killed in the line of duty), and the "Mayor James Thalman and Mayor Michael Wickman Memorial Highway" for the portion between Soquel Canyon Parkway and Pine Avenue in Chino Hills (honoring two of the members of the first Chino Hills City Council who both later served separately as the city's mayor).

Beginning at its northern terminus at the Kellogg Interchange complex in San Dimas to a short distance south of Mission Boulevard in Pomona, it is a four-lane freeway. From that point and through most of Pomona, it is a four-lane expressway with at-grade intersections with other, 'regular' streets.
