State Route 119 (SR 119) is a state highway in the U.S. state of California that runs in an east-west direction from State Route 33 in Taft to State Route 99 just south of Bakersfield. SR 119 is part of the former U.S. Route 399, which ran along SR 33 and State Route 166 before ending at SR 99 (known as US 99 before 1964). Today, it serves as the main connector between the extreme southewestern corner of the San Joaquin Valley and Bakersfield.

  • State Route 119 (SR 119) is a state highway in the U.S. state of California that runs in an east-west direction from State Route 33 in Taft to State Route 99 just south of Bakersfield. SR 119 is part of the former U.S. Route 399, which ran along SR 33 and State Route 166 before ending at SR 99 (known as US 99 before 1964). Today, it serves as the main connector between the extreme southewestern corner of the San Joaquin Valley and Bakersfield. The legal definition states that Route 119 ends in "Greenfield", which should not be confused with the Greenfield in Monterey County. Before Caltrans started posting exit numbers, the Union Avenue exit off SR 99 was signed as Greenfield. The Kern County unincorporated area of Greenfield is near the intersection of Union Ave and SR 119. Highway 119 is commonly known as Taft Highway. It passes through some of Kern County's most famous oil fields, including the Midway-Sunset, the third-largest oil field in the United States; the Buena Vista Oil Field; and runs adjacent to the Elk Hills Oil Field, formerly the Naval Petroleum Reserve No. 1, infamous as one of the two illicit leases – the other being Teapot Dome – part of the scandal which marred the administration of President Warren G. Harding in the 1920s.
