Title: M-364: I-364?
Post by: bugo on April 10, 2015, 04:22:59 PM
Are there any plans to make MO 364 an interstate?

There's a Double-Secret Special Committee designed to ignore at least one interstate-quality and conveniently-numbered route in nearly every state, thus keeping conversion plans on hold indefinitely.

I thought MO-370 already qualified for Missouri.

Missouri lent the committee its timeshare on Lake of the Ozarks so they get more.

And MO 249 and MO 360.

MO 360 isn't 'conveniently-numbered' (for an interstate), being numbered as a spur of US60, rather than a spur of I-44

Same concept.

Shower thought: CT 184 and CT 195 should switch places.

I doubt MO 364 or MO 370 will ever become Interstates.

The latter had its I-370 proposal rejected, mainly because it connects I-70 to I-270. If anything, it will become I-870, as that number is the only one not yet used within the state.

And yet, Illinois next door has I-155 and I-355 doing something similar.

Not really. 370 connects 70 with one of its offshoots. 155 connects 55 to 74. 355 originally connected 55 to 290. 364 is more similar in that it connects 64 to 270. As a STL resident, I don't really care if they promote either to interstate status. I do agree with the others who have stated 70 really should be rerouted along what is currently 270 in North County.
