It makes no sense to me why they never did this with US 10. Also, WA 99 has a north and south section, ever since a middle section on Tukwila International Boulevard was decommissioned (which was a stupid thing to do).

WSDOT turned over that section because the city wanted to maintain the crumbling asphalt that is International Boulevard.

Also, why would you sign more of US 10? I'd extend WA-10 from Ellensburg to Vantage on the old Vantage Highway.

I would like to see Florida's Turnpike use I-91.  It's already FL 91 internally.

Imagine that, a Southern I-91! :nod:


I like this idea.

Arkansas takes the cake...there are many different sections of many different state highways all over the state. Some have never been connected as a single route.
Runnin' roads and polishin' rails.

Probably I-86 in the east would be the best case of reuse because it was first designated along what is now I-84 from Hartford, CT to SouthbridgeSturbridge, MA back when I-84 was slated to go east along the current US 6 corridor to Providence, RI.

Years after it being dropped was re-given to the NY 17 Freeway in NYS to be used once again.

Fixed for you.
