https://www.ksdot.gov/
It's still ksdot.gov instead of kdot.gov, but at least it doesn't look like they built it in GeoCities anymore. Unfortunately, a lot of the old project pages are gone now.

What? This is wild. There are TONS of Philly stereotypes, varying from sports and food to history and culture.
Not nearly as many as are applied to Boston.
That depends on where you live. I hear far more stereotypes (almost all of them very negative) about Philadelphia residents, no doubt because when you live in the DC area you encounter Philadelphia sports fans on a regular basis due to our respective cities' major pro teams* playing in the same division.
*Before someone squawks, I'm not counting DC's basketball team as "major." They've had two separate 16-game losing streaks this season alone.
I've had two comments now bringing up the reputation of Philadelphia's sports fans as a retort to my point. That actually proves my point. That hardly compares to the stigma attached to DC residents for living in the nation's capital or Boston for its Irish heritage, abundance of colleges, and its liberal politics.

Quote from: ITB on Today at 01:49:08 PMQuote from: seicer on Today at 01:07:20 PMThere is nothing on the Wikipedia articles nor on INDOT's radar for a freeway between Interstate 74 and US 50.
It's mentioned in the U.S. Route 421 Wikipedia page, under the Future subhead. No reference is cited, however. The pertinent section reads:
"US 421 is projected to be upgraded to a freeway in Indiana from Greensburg to Versailles. US 421 freeway will go near, or pass through Napoleon and Osgood."
