State Route 47 is a California State Highway that travels in a north-south direction, beginning as a freeway from the southern terminus of Interstate 110 in San Pedro across Terminal Island and past the Port of Long Beach. The freeway ends on the other side of the Vincent Thomas Bridge, but Route 47 continues north on a second freeway after a few blocks. Route 47 then exits that freeway after a short distance on N. Henry Ford Ave., continuing north on Alameda St. until its terminus at I-10 in downtown Los Angeles. However, the route is unsigned past Route 91.
The freeway portion of the route continues as Route 103 and was originally part of Route 47 until 1982 (hence the second part of the legislative definition).
