In 1944, Congress authorized construction of an interstate expressway system connecting major cities and industrial centers. No money was involved in the bill. The project never took off until the awarding of the first contract for I-70 in Missouri, in 1956. North Dakota was the first state to complete its Interstates. More information is available at http://www.tfhrc.gov/pubrds/summer96/p96su10.htm and http://eisenhower.archives.gov/dl/InterstateHighways/InterstateHighwaysdocuments.html .

The first stretch of Interstate opened under the 1944 Congress act was I-70 in Kansas, which opened in 1957. More information is at http://www.tfhrc.gov/pubrds/summer96/p96su18.htm 2000-08-17 15:29:33

This is a hoax. Basically the rumor was that AASHTO plans to implement a new shield design by 2007 or earlier. It was a circle in a square, considered ugly by most. No. See http://www.tfhrc.gov/pubrds/mayjun00/onemileinfive.htm (official) and http://www.snopes.com/autos/law/airstrip.asp . It was considered briefly ( http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/infrastructure/turner.htm ) but never adopted officially.

It is the consensus of m.t.r that Fresno, CA (2000 pop. 427,652), is the most populous city in the U.S. without an Interstate within its boundaries. The closest it has to an Interstate is CA 99, old US 99 (see 7.4.2). (Mesa, AZ, is expected to pass Fresno in population by the 2010 Census - it only has the US 60 freeway and part of the Phoenix loop system - see 6.3.5 ). The largest cities with only one Interstate are Austin, TX (2000 pop. 656,562), with I-35, and Colorado Springs, CO (2000 pop.

Eastern UT, on I-70 between Green River and Salina (106 miles, formerly 110 miles) -- see http://members.aol.com/utahhwys/rte070.htm . See Question 3.6.2 for the longest distance between freeway exits. Jul 18, 2006

A compilation of Interstate (and other) tunnels and their locations is at http://groups.google.com/group/misc.transport.road/browse_frm/thread/7922cbdaff588381 Feb 1, 2005 mentioned in the intro to this section, individual Interstates may be found in only one state. Most 3di's are single-state; the single state 2di's are I-4 (FL), I-12 (LA), I-16 (GA), I-17 (AZ), I-19 (AZ), I-27 (TX), I-37 (TX), I-43 (WI), I-45 (TX), I-49 (LA), I-73 (NC - see 6.3.

I-70 in CO near the west portals of of the Eisenhower Memorial Tunnel (MM 213-215) under the Continental Divide east of Dillon is 11,192 feet above sea level. (Map: 39.68,-105.93 ; see also http://www.dot.state.co.us/eisenhower/ and http://www.mesalek.com/colo/i70.html ) The second-highest is also on I-70 in CO at Vail Pass (Exit 190) which reaches an elevation of 10,666 feet above sea level. (Map: 39.53,-106.22 ; see also http://www.mesalek.com/colo/i70.

While it would seem that such a pairing should be east-west, so far the two candidates seem to be I-91/US-5 and I-81/US-11, both with 36 each (counting I-81/US-11E and I-81/US-11W as one crossing each). Sep 13, 2004

On August 2, 1947, the Federal Works Administrator, Major General Philip B. Fleming, approved the first 37,700 miles of the Interstate System recommended by Commissioner of Public Roads Thomas H. MacDonald. Although Congress had not established a program to build the network, the States used Federal-aid primary funds to build many projects in the designated Interstate corridors.

Yes. About 1% of the population carries MRSA on the skin – they are considered to be ‘colonized’ with MRSA and are generally asymptomatic. People who are exposed to the organism from a carrier generally do not get sick from it, or develop only mild illnesses (similar to normal staph infections). However, if a minor infection is not cared for, or if there are other factors (e.g., compromised immunity), then the infection may become more serious.

Any body who has the virus is a carrier and can infect others. Very often the person does not know that he/she is a carrier. He/she has no symptoms of the disease and the person who infected him/her may have had no symptoms either. A person can be a carrier unknowingly for many years and may keep transmitting the infection to others if he/she does not take proper precautions. A carrier becomes symptomatic only when the virus has destroyed so much of the immune system that he/she falls ill.

To revoke a number from a particular highway. Normally this is accompanied by downloading to the next lower government body, although sometimes it remains as a secret state route, or a US route becomes a state route. Interchanges are grade-separated intersections with one-way ramps connecting the two roads. They are often also called "exits" though that term may also apply to a single off-ramp (road carrying traffic from the freeway to the crossroad).

AASHTO eliminated them in 1980 and told state DOTs to think of other numbers. Two still remain on I-35. I-15E in California stayed until 1983 (see 6.2.1.3). Jan 18, 2002 stated in the previous question, some Interstates once carried letter suffixes. All but three were changed in 1980, and one of those (I-15E in CA) was gone by 1983. The remaining two are the I-35 splits in Dallas and Minneapolis, which remain because there was no consensus on what the new numbers would be.

No, according to Carl Dixon, Branch Manager, Division of Planning, Kentucky Transportation Cabinet. Each of Kentucky's parkways would require work to reach the standards defined for Interstates. Work that would be required depends on the parkway; however, the work would "include more lanes (e.g., the Daniel Boone Parkway), wider median widths, wider shoulders, reduced grades, smoother curves, improved interchanges, and possibly several other design details".
