Route description
The route begins at State Route 198 in Visalia with an interchange. It then continues to Ivanhoe, where it meets County Route J34. As it continues through Tulare County, it enters Woodlake, where it meets State Route 245. It then meets County Route J21 before meeting its north end at State Route 198.[1]
The portion of SR 216 in the Visalia city limits is part of the National Highway System,[2] a network of highways that are considered essential to the country's economy, defense, and mobility by the Federal Highway Administration.[3]
Major intersections
Except where prefixed with a letter, postmiles were measured on the road as it was in 1964, based on the alignment that existed at the time, and do not necessarily reflect current mileage. R reflects a realignment in the route since then, M indicates a second realignment, L refers an overlap due to a correction or change, and T indicates postmiles classified as temporary (for a full list of prefixes, see the list of postmile definitions).[1] Segments that remain unconstructed or have been relinquished to local control may be omitted. The entire route is in Tulare County.
