Title: Historic Jackson Co. MO Highway Photos
Post by: Route66Fan on October 03, 2020, 05:45:43 PM
I found these pictures in a 1926 book I got off of Ebay called "Jackson County Missouri, It's Opportunities and Resources" (Also known as the "Official Report on the Resources and Opportunities of Jackson County, Missouri.), by M. E. Ballou, who was, at the time, Acting Secretary, and organizer of the Rual Jackson County Chamber of Commerce.
I think this is now Lone Jack-Lee Summit Road (Old US 50).

I think this is now the Westbound lanes of US 40 near Lake Tapawingo, between Independence, MO & Blue Springs, MO.

The book had a grammatical error in its title?

I tried to map the Sni-A-Bar road picture to a current map. While parts of it still exist, this appears to be what is now Blue parkway in the Blue River valley.
