The Newhall Pass Interchange (officially Clarence Wayne Dean Memorial Interchange) is a highway interchange at Newhall Pass, north of Sylmar in Southern California, United States. It connects Interstate 5 (Golden State Freeway) with State Route 14 (Antelope Valley Freeway).
The 5-14 split, as the interchange is commonly referred to as by locals, is the northernmost of five freeway interchanges on Interstate 5 within a 10-mile stretch. From south to north, the freeways that interchange with Interstate 5 include: California State Highway 170 in North Hollywood, California State Highway 118 in Panorama City, Interstate 405 in Sylmar, Interstate 210, also in Sylmar, and ultimately the 14 Freeway.
The interchange is extremely large, and consists of numerous flyover ramps and two tunnels. Portions of Interstate 5 in the pass reach up to 21 lanes wide. The complex structure combines a directional T-interchange with a collector–distributor bypass. The bypass, signed as truck lanes, allows traffic to and from State Route 14 to avoid the congested pass summit. These truck lanes extend south to the Interstate 210 interchange, and have direct ramps to and from the 210 Freeway. The bypass is the original four-lane freeway, built as U.S. Route 99.
