I think the difference is that the 101 is a state highway, 237 is a county highway.

- classichasclass 5y agoCA 237 is a state highway. https://cahighways.org/ROUTE237.html https://cahighways.org/ROUTE237.html US 101 in that stretch is actually part of the National Highway System and gets federal funding, though notionally all US highways are state highways with a national grid number.
- jxramos 5y agooh man you're right. I thought that green signage denoted a county road, like you see in the side by side the 237 being green, and the 101 being white. Now I'm curious where that tabulation was I saw years ago that detailed the differences in the sign shape color and appearance. https://www.google.com/maps/place/CA-237,+Milpitas,+CA/@37.4077315,-121.9795477,3a,75y,90t/data=!3m8!1e2!3m6!1sAF1QipNM8_FygvMhsYcIH-TztjyIqvFcECdhgYkxV4Gv!2e10!3e12!6shttps:%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%2Fp%2FAF1QipNM8_FygvMhsYcIH-TztjyIqvFcECdhgYkxV4Gv%3Dw144-h86-k-no!7i4032!8i2405!4m5!3m4!1s0x808fc9cd3a48ab63:0x97e24e4d53a3a32f!8m2!3d37.4289917!4d-121.9098515 https://www.google.com/maps/place/CA-237,+Milpitas,+CA/@37.4...
- kccqzy 5y agoCounty highways are named with a letter followed by a number. For example Lawrence Expressway is G2. You can see the faded G2 sign at the exit from 237. https://goo.gl/maps/NGaa56Qkb9a8hzXg8 https://goo.gl/maps/NGaa56Qkb9a8hzXg8
