Carlsbad, a coastal city known for its beaches and theme park, sees regular traffic incidents along I-5.
With a 2015 estimated population of almost 113,500, Carlsbad is a seaside resort city that occupies a 7-mile stretch of the Pacific coastline in northern San Diego County and is situated approximately 87 miles south of Los Angeles and 35 miles north of downtown San Diego. Lovingly referred to by its natives as “The Village by the Sea”. Carlsbad is also home to a number of popular tourist attractions such as the Legoland California Resort, the La Costa Golf Club and Spa and the Sea Life Aquarium. The San Diego Zoo, Knott’s Berry Farm, and Sea World San Diego are within a short driving distance as well.
