Untitled[edit]

Because there is a US 60 very close to Interstate 44 in northeastern Oklahoma and southwestern Missouri, and near much of Interstate 64 between Louisville, Kentucky and Norfolk, Virginia, any "Interstate 60" as a combination of Interstate 44 and Interstate 64 as a long Interstate route. Between St. Louis and Louisville, Interstate 64 lies close to what used to be a now-defunct US 460. Furthermore, an Interstate 464 in southeastern Virginia crosses US 460.

It would have been a good idea had there been no "US 60". Confusion between US and Interstat Highway numbers has never been permitted.

It couldn't be "Interstate 50", either, because it meets US 50 near St. Louis.

Oklahoma I-44 spurs[edit]

In the Oklahoma City metro, there is no I-644, signed or otherwise, nor is one planned. Text concerning it has been deleted. In Tulsa, I can confirm that I-444 is unsigned, as I have driven on it several dozen times. Wd40 22:29:09, 2005-08-09 (UTC)

"Death Trap in Eureka"[edit]

Does this really belong here? It seems more appropriate for a newspaper article than Wikipedia. I can't tell that the content is really POV, but the title is. Unless I see a discussion to keep this, I'm removing it in a week. Rt66lt 18:07, September 1, 2005 (UTC)

Something else. There has been several accidents through this stretch of I-44 recently. What this article fails to mention is the tremendous amount of road work going on at the same time. This, I know for a fact, is part of the problem. Rt66lt 18:30, September 1, 2005 (UTC)

Exit list[edit]

This has since been added to the articles in question.

I-44 Eastern End[edit]

According to the Poplar Street Bridge article, I-44 technically ends on the Missouri/Illinois state line in the middle of the bridge, but the signage varies by state. It says that eastbound signage in Missouri stops at I-55 (like this article says) and westbound signage begins at the western end of the bridge. Since the Bridge article has a source and this does not, I will make this article conform to the bridge article, and cite the same source. Feel free to disagree.

AARoads is not a reliable source. --NE2 21:12, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

On the other hand, [1] shows an I-44/I-55 overlap, but none between I-44 and I-70. So I-44 makes it at least to the interchange at the west end of the bridge. That table doesn't show the I-55/I-64/I-70 overlap, so it has some omissions. --NE2 21:41, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Whoops, I apologize for not seeing this... sorry! I can revert. —Rob (talk) 22:21, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the bridge, I was thinking that Illinois had forgotten a "To" sign somewhere. It's happened before... (see Chicago Skyway). —Rob (talk) 22:22, 17 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

MODOT is reliable. http://www.newriverbridge.org/documents/NMRBRe-Evaluation%203.pdf 130.111.163.179 (talk) 20:14, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
