Interstate 5 Business (Chehalis–Centralia, Washington)
Business routes of Interstate 5 exist in both California and Washington. There are no business routes in Oregon as that state does not assign such designations for any of its Interstate highways. However, Oregon Route 99 essentially acts as a business route for most of Oregon, along with Oregon Route 99W and Oregon Route 99E, which also has its own business route in Salem. California Interstate business routes in California are assigned by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), but are not maintained by Caltrans unless they overlay other routes of the state highway system.

Business Route
A business route (or business loop, business spur, or city route) in the United States is a short special route connected to a ''parent'' numbered highway at its beginning, then routed through the central business district of a nearby city or town, and finally reconnecting with the same ''parent'' numbered highway again at its end. Naming Business routes always have the same number as the routes they parallel. For example, U.S. 1 Business is a loop off, and paralleling, U.S. Route 1, and Interstate 40 Business is a loop off, and paralleling, Interstate 40. In some states, a business route is designated by adding the letter "B" after the number instead of placing a "Business" sign above it. For example, Arkansas signs a business route of US 71 as "US 71B". On some route shields and road signs, the word "business" is shortened to just "BUS". This abbreviation is rare and usually avoided to prevent confusion with bus routes. Marking Signage of business routes varies, d ...
