The Moreno Valley Freeway is a freeway segment of California State Highway 60, connecting Riverside to cities further east in the Inland Empire and (via Interstate 10) to the Coachella Valley. Its western terminus is at the intersection of the Pomona, Escondido, and Riverside freeways, near downtown Riverside. It is part of the Escondido Freeway for several miles in Riverside, traveling southeast, before diverging from that road along the border between Riverside and Moreno Valley and traveling straight east for approximately 20 miles. After passing through Moreno Valley and the rugged hill country to the east, it ends at Interstate 10 in Beaumont.
Owing to the rapid development of the Inland Empire since the 1980s, the Moreno Valley Freeway now suffers from severe congestion.
