Highlights

* Possible past effort to have I-670 shifted south to run along 20th Street closer to the railroad tracks on the south side before it was built.

* From the map, it appears I-70 underwent a major change from its earlier planned alignment, from north of State Avenue to along the railroad tracks near the Kansas River.
