Control cities without direct access to downtown

Chicago for I-88 and I-57 (65 and 80 were mentioned upthread). Also, depending on how you define Downtown Chicago, I-55 could apply here too.

It's not all that uncommon for cities to be big enough to warrant control city status yet still have the Interstate skirt around the outside of the city. Off the top of my head, this includes Lake City, Daytona Beach, Naples, Tallahassee, and Pensacola (for I-10, at least). And those are just the Florida examples.
Davenport, IA -> Valparaiso, IN -> Ames, IA -> Orlando, FL -> Gainesville, FL -> Evansville, IN

I-69 was mentioned earlier for Michigan. In Indiana I-69 misses Downtown Fort Wayne by several miles (from personal experience it's at least 15 minutes from the interstate to the city center.) It also misses Downtown Indianapolis, which will remain true even when the interstate is officially routed around the city. The interstate also comes a mile short of Downtown Evansville, but has pretty close direct access via a parkway. When the I-69 bridge over the Ohio River is complete it the interstate will miss Evansville by an even larger distance.

Couple more:

I-395 in CT.  Ends 40 miles before New Haven (the control from Norwich south). Have to continue on I-95.  Also from CT 2A west: Boston and N.Y. City (for the casino goers, obviously).  Boston requires a 40-mile jog east on I-90 once you reach Auburn, MA.  NYC requires a 100+ mile trip on I-95. 

I-290 West for Norwich, CT.  Used to be Auburn, but Norwich requires continuing onto I-395 for about 50 miles. 

CT 15 and I-91 for N.Y. City (though newer signs are eliminating NYC for I-91).  I-91 ends in New Haven and requires almost 70 miles of I-95.  The CT 15 number does not continue across the NY border (though the roadway does as The Hutch.  CT 15 north uses New Haven and Hartford.  It barely scrapes the northwest corner of New Haven in a more suburban area (and more direct access to downtown is achieved by exiting in Orange on CT 34 northbound and in Hamden southbound), and barely scrapes the southwest corner of Hartford (getting to downtown requires the use of I-91). 

I-691 West for Waterbury.  Ends at I-84 on the Southington/Cheshire line and requires about 7 additional miles on 84.

I-384 West for Hartford.  Although not as egregious as the opposite direction's control, it ends 6 miles short at its parent in East Hartford.

New York on I-295 in RI.  Requires almost an additional 150 miles on I-95.  The northbound (sometimes) control of Woonsocket requires exiting onto RI 146, then exiting 146 onto RI 99.  As for the other control (Boston), it requires 35 miles of I-95 and I-93.

Eastern LI for the Cross Island Parkway.  Unless you exit on the LIE or Northern/Southern State, you'll be on the Belt Parkway headed for Brooklyn. 

I-278 East for New Haven: See I-91 for NYC. 

Taconic Parkway: For Albany, ends in Chatham and requires 25 miles of I-90 or the Berkshire Spur to the mainline Thruway to I-787.  NYC requires another parkway south of Hawthorne depending on which part of the city you're going to.

Brewster for the Saw Mill Parkway.  Ends in Katonah and requires 10 additional miles on I-684. 
Interstates I've clinched: 97, 290 (MA), 291 (CT), 291 (MA), 293, 295 (DE-NJ-PA), 295 (RI-MA), 384, 391, 395 (CT-MA), 395 (MD), 495 (DE), 610 (LA), 684, 691, 695 (MD), 695 (NY), 795 (MD)

Elizabeth, NJ on both I-278 and NJ Turnpike. You have to take NJ 439 to South Broad Street.  Even then Elizabeth's Downtown is not called Downtown, but Midtown instead. Downtown Elizabeth is not a traditional Downtown but the neighborhood  east of I-95 and to that extent I-95 flies over it with no access to the streets below it.

Using the OP as a guide, it seems like this thread has gone down the wrong tracks.  I was assuming that the intent of this thread was to identify cities where the main highway doesn't have any exits or interchanges that lead directly into the central business district (downtown), but rather that you have use a separate route to gain access.  One of the cities that came to mind was I-20 and I-77 for Columbia, South Carolina.  But SC-277 does connect I-20 directly into downtown, albeit not the best route from the west.

Pretty much all interstates here in NOrth Carolina have no access to downtown except for I-77 and I-277 in Charlotte. As well as I-240 in Asheville.

Until North Carolina went on its bypass-building spree, I-40 traditionally went through downtown W-S and I-85 went through downtown Greensboro.

Even to this day, If I'm making the connection between US 52 and I-40 in W-S, I use Business 40 US 421 instead of I-40 on the south side of town, and will go through Death Valley on whatever that route is numbered now instead of taking the southern route to the new I-85.

Death Valley has indeed had a bunch of number changes.  But I-40 was flipped back onto the Death Valley section of Greensboro just a little more than half-year after being routed onto the southern half of the Greensboro Urban Loop, with all the signage returned to [normal] in July 2009.  I do use the southern half of Greensboro Urban Loop to bypass the city during rush hour, as the higher speeds make the trip only a few minutes longer than obeying the speed limits through Death Valley.  But I still use Death Valley most of the time.

With respect to this thread, downtown Greensboro is indeed way off of the Interstate system, but downtown can be directly accessed from I-40 from Exit 218 (US-220 south/Freeman Mill Road) and also Exit 221 (South Elm-Eugene Street).  On I-85, there is also the new Exit 124 (South Elm-Eugene Street), albeit so far out that nobody would ever use it to access downtown.  Plus, I-73 continues into downtown Greensboro from the north as Joseph M. Bryan Boulevard, after I-73 dumps onto the western side of the Greensboro Urban Loop.

It always bothered me that Joliet is a control city along I-55 in northeast Illinois, since I-55 only passes through the western arm of Joliet nowhere near the city center.  Same with I-255 passing through the outer eastern arm of East St. Louis, though I-255 is signed as a way to reach East St. Louis.

New York City on I-80 in NJ. Exit 53 connects to US 46, NJ 3, and NJ 495 for Midtown NYC, but not Downtown. I-80 connects to I-95 for Uptown NYC, but not Downtown either.

I-49 whenever AR completes it won't have a direct route to Downtown Fort Smith.

I-49 will be MILES from downtown.
Nobody yet has mentioned I-40, which uses Little Rock coming from either direction but only connects to the city using I-30.

For that matter, I-40 West uses Fort Smith as a control city but doesn't directly connect either.

I-64 Norfolk (connected via I-264)
Williamsburg, Newport News, and Virginia Beach (either Town Center or the Oceanfront) can also be added to this list.

Surface roads are needed to connect to Williamsburg, then I-664 and I-264 provide access to the other two.

But that's pretty common.  I-41 barely touches the fringes of the City of Milwaukee, but it would be foolish to have any city but Milwaukee as the control city for I-41 north of the city.

I-97 nor 50/301/595 actually enter Annapolis' corporate limits. Going in either direction on US 50, downtown Annapolis is most directly accessible via MD 450.

Doesn't "bother" me at all, being from IL.  :wave: Since there are exits to US 52 and 30, which lead to the main parts. SO what? This whole thread is kind of nit picking, I think. Idea is that road leads to the general area of a city per that 'control'. "In the direction of..."

And, I-55, just breezes past Springfield so what?    :)

Doesn't I-40 also reference LA (I know it does in Flagstaff)? That would require I-15 & I-10 or SR 60 to get there (or continue west on SR 58 then south on SR 14 & I-5).

I-270, I-225, E-470 all reference Limon. None of them goes anywhere near there. All of those access Limon via I-70 east.

The same is true of C-470 & Grand Junction. One would take I-70 westbound from C-470 to access Grand Junction (eventually).

Come to think of it, to get to downtown GJ from I-70, you have to take the business loop/US 6 (from the east) and US 6/50 (from the west). Downtown is a few miles south of mainline I-70.

And downtown Denver isn't on I-70 either. You have to take I-25 or Brighton Blvd south to access downtown.

I30 and I-49 both have direct routes to Downtown despite not being on it.

US 71 (State Line Ave.) from I-30 and US 71 from the south goes directly to it. Coming from the north your on US 71 already from Van Buren, so to remain on that or use the exit for US 82 on the east side of the city.


Someone in this thread used it and modified it in an earlier post. Just want to that Texarkana is directly served by an interstate to Downtown.

But the thread is about needing only one road from the highway to get downtown, and Brighton Blvd turns into Broadway (no turns required) which is definitely downtown.

How about Bluefield, West Virginia?  Going southbound, Exit 9 (US-460/Princeton/Pearisburg VA) is the main exit for Bluefield but it is not important enough to even be listed on the main BGS.  But Exit 1 off of I-77 is for US-52, which if you follow it far enough you will end up in downtown Bluefield.  You could make an argument that this is one road, but you have to take a cloverleaf to hop onto US-460/US-19 and then jump off onto the East Cumberland Road frontage road and later turn right onto Bland Street to access downtown.

Even more questionable is northbound.  Is the control city on I-77 in Virginia for Bluefield, West Virginia or Bluefield, Virginia?  It is certainly not marked, whereas US-460 westbound does use "Bluefield W, Va." as the main control city leaving Blacksburg and Pearisburg.  Again, you take Exit 1 (on the West Virginia side, further compounding the issue).  But if you disregard that cloverleaf onto US-460/US-19, the route from I-77 along the side of East River Mountain eventually takes you into the "main" part of Bluefield, Virginia (which is not considered downtown).  But that's not even the same location as the Bluefield used as a control city leaving Richlands and Tazewell on US-19/US-460 (the intersection of Virginia Avenue and Graham Avenue, which are now flip-flopped in importance with US-19 bypassing most of the main drag).

Having driven through that area dozens of times, I will automatically take US 52 to I-77 to rejoin US 460 at the Princeton exit if I'm planning to continue east on 460, instead of staying on 460 the entire way. The higher speed limit on I-77 and the lack of traffic lights are my primary reasons. Corridor Q through that area can be a slog sometimes.
