Source-derived summary

State Route 113 (SR 113) is an approximately 59-mile (95 km) north–south state highway in California that runs for approximately 10 miles (16 km) west of Rio Vista at SR 12 to SR 99 in Tudor. It is one of two major connecting routes between Interstate 80 (I-80) and I-5 that bypass Sacramento to the west, complementing I-505 farther to the west. Past the southern terminus are Collinsville and Birds Landing around the Suisun Bay marshes. Cities along the route include Dixon, Davis, and Woodland. It also shares a stretch of I-80 between Dixon and just outside UC Davis. The freeway section of SR 113 running between I-80 near UC Davis and I-5 in Woodland is officially designated as the Vic Fazio Highway, after the former U.S. House representative of the Davis area, who is credited with obtaining the funding for the freeway upgrade of that section. The remainder of SR 113 is a standard road of two to four lanes.

Route description

SR 113 is defined as Route 113 in section 413 of the California Streets and Highways Code. The definition omits the concurrency with Route 80 instead of duplicating that segment in the other route's definition in the code:

Route 113 is from:

(a) Route 12 to Route 80 near Dixon.

(b) Route 80 near Davis to Route 99 passing near Woodland.

Editorial summary

Begin with the source’s own compact description: “California State Route 113” is state highway in Solano, Yolo, and Sutter counties in California, United States. The dossier treats that line as a proposition to test through California, State and Route, not as a finished interpretation.

Editorial reviewA dependable orientation record for establishing vocabulary, names and a first evidence trail. The current 224-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The selected authority fields contribute no independent date. For this dossier, California, State and Route is the immediate research focus.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “state highway in Solano, Yolo, and Sutter counties in California, United States” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 6, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q758064. VIAF identifies the subject as 315166741. The Library of Congress control number is sh2010010157. Authority coordinates are 38.703, -121.765. 2 of 3 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
