State highways: Route 107: relinquishment.
Existing law vests the Department of Transportation with full possession and control of all state highways.

Existing law requires the commission to relinquish to local agencies state highway portions that have been deleted from the state highway system by legislative enactment, and authorizes relinquishment in certain other cases.
This bill would authorize the commission to relinquish to the City of Redondo Beach the portion of State Route 107 within the city limits and
