State Route 27 is a state highway in the U.S. state of California that runs from Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) at Topanga State Beach near Malibu, through Topanga Canyon including the community of Fernwood Pacific also known as Topanga, and continuing through Woodland Hills, Canoga Park, West Hills and Chatsworth to State Route 118. The entire route is commonly known by its street name, Topanga Canyon Boulevard.
Being one of the only routes across the Santa Monica Mountains, Route 27 is heavily traveled by commuters from the western San Fernando Valley heading to Santa Monica or Interstate 10 as an alternative to the extremely congested Interstate 405.
