Interstate 89 Vermont - South Archive


This state-named shield stood at the on-ramp from U.S. 2 (Williston Road) east onto Interstate 89 south. 07/23/00

Guide signs for Interstate 189, a 1.49-mile freeway leading west to U.S. 7, were posted without tabs for Exit 13 until the sign replacement project completed by 2012. 08/02/07

This auxiliary guide sign touting the connections of I-189 west to U.S. 7 south for Vergennes and Rutland referenced the First Exit. The problem was that there is no second exit at I-189, as no connection was built to Kennedy Drive east or Dorset Street from I-89. 08/04/07

Sign changes made at Exit 13 replaced Middlebury with Rutland as the second control point for I-189 west to U.S. 7 south. I-189 was originally intended on ending at the Burlington Belt Line, a freeway proposed to lead north to Downtown and south to Shelburne. 07/23/00

This reassurance marker was simply removed during the resigning of I-89. It was posted ahead of the Kennedy Drive westbound on-ramp to Interstate 189. 08/04/07
