context_page_description: State Route 371 is a state highway in Riverside County in the U.S. state of California, serving as a short 21-mile connector from SR 79 near Aguanga to SR 74 near Anza. It is a heavily-used shortcut from southwestern Riverside County to the Coachella Valley in central Riverside County via SR 74. The current route was part of SR 71 until 1973, when SR 79 and SR 71 were co-signed from Aguanga to Temecula. In 1974, the portion of SR 71 from Temecula to Corona along I-15's current alignment was deleted, and the orphaned route from Aguanga to Anza was re-signed as SR 371.
  SR 371 is the main highway serving the communities of Anza and Aguanga and connects both towns. SR 371 crosses through the private community of Lake Riverside, as well as Cahuilla and the Cahuilla Indian Reservation. It is the primary road running through the town of Anza but mostly serves rural areas. The highway is often plagued by shutdowns due to snow, ice, wind, and wildfires, which occasionally causes local schools to close.
