Interstate 70 (abbreviated I-70) is a long interstate highway in the United States that runs from Interstate 15 about a mile from Cove Fort, Utah to a Park and Ride in Baltimore, Maryland. It was the first Interstate Highway Project started in the United States. I-70 approximately traces the path of U.S. Route 40 (and also the old National Road) east of the Rocky Mountains.

I-70 passes through Spotted Wolf Canyon inside the San Rafael Swell

Between Green River and Salina I-70 crosses a massive geologic formation called the San Rafael Swell. Prior to I-70's construction the swell was relatively undiscovered and inaccessible via paved roads.

When this 108 mile (174 km) piece was opened to traffic in 1970 it earned several distinctions:

• The longest stretch of interstate highway with no services
• The first highway in the U.S. built over a completely new route since the Alaska Highway^[3]
• The longest piece of interstate highway to be opened at one time

Though opened in 1970 this section was not formally complete until 1990 when a 2nd steel arch bridge spanning Eagle Canyon was opened to traffic. Map of Alaska Highway (in red) The Alaska Highway, also the Alaskan Highway, Alaska-Canadian Highway, and the Alcan Highway, runs from Dawson Creek, British Columbia to Fairbanks, Alaska, via Whitehorse, Yukon. ...

Since I-70's construction the swell has been discovered for its desolate beauty. The swell has since been nominated for National Park and/or National Monument status on multiple occasions. If the swell is granted this status it arguably would be the first time a National Park owes its existence to an interstate highway. Most of the exits in this span are view areas, brake check areas, and Runaway truck ramps with few traditional freeway exits. Rest area on northbound Interstate 81 at milepost 262 in Rockingham County, Virginia. ... A Runaway truck ramp is a long pit, usually filled with gravel, that enables trucks that are having braking problems to safely stop without damaging other property or injuring people. ...

As first proposed the western terminus of I-70 was Denver, Colorado. Utah and Colorado pressured the federal government to extend the plans for I-70 further west, arguing that a direct link between Denver, Colorado and Salt Lake City, Utah was vital for an effective highway system. The proposal was to follow what is now U.S. Highway 6 and connect to I-15 at Spanish Fork, Utah. Federal planners (influenced by the military) agreed to extend the proposed route of I-70, but not to serve Salt Lake. The military wanted to better connect southern California with the North Eastern U.S. This led to I-70's constructed route through the San Rafael Swell and terminating at Cove Fort. Many motorists include I-70 as part of their cross-country drives between New York City and Los Angeles (which are accessible to I-70 via other interstates).^[4] Nickname: The Mile-High City Location of Denver in Colorado Coordinates: Country United States State Colorado City-County Denver (coextensive) Founded November 22, 1858 Incorporated November 7, 1861  - Mayor John Hickenlooper (D) Area    - City 401. ...

Utah Law Defining Route

Colorado

Eisenhower Tunnel

I-70 passes through wide plains in eastern Colorado.

• The 62-mile (100-km) section of I-70 between Georgetown and Avon sometimes remains closed for days at a time, as it passes through areas of the Rocky Mountains that receive large amounts of snowfall and are notoriously prone to avalanches. The pattern of winter closures makes this stretch of I-70 quite unusual within the Interstate Highway System. This segment of the highway includes Vail Pass and the east and west approaches to the Eisenhower Tunnel, and it passes within a mile of several ski resorts, including Vail, Copper Mountain, and Loveland Basin.

• I-70 is one of few roads connecting ski resorts such as Keystone and Aspen with Denver and due to the Eisenhower Tunnel, it is more likely to be open than alternative roads. Another alternative is to fly into the ski towns' small airports.

• I-70 through Glenwood Canyon was the last section of I-70 to be completed. The 15 mile (24 km) stretch was completed in 1992 and was an engineering marvel due to the extremely difficult terrain and narrow space in the canyon, which requires corners that are sharper than normal Interstate standards. Construction was delayed for many years due to environmental concerns. The difficulties in building the road in the canyon were compounded by the fact that a railroad occupied the south bank and many temporary construction projects took place to keep U.S. Highway 6 open, at the time the only east-west road in the area. There are three eastbound and two westbound tunnels, and much of the highway is elevated above the Colorado River. The speed limit in this section is 50 mph (80 km/h) due to the limited sight distance and sharper corners. Great care was taken to not destroy the local ecosystem with the building of the road. All rest areas through this stretch use reclaimed water. In 2004, part of this section was destroyed by a large boulder that fell while the road was shut down for construction.

• The Eisenhower Tunnel on I-70 is the highest vehicular tunnel in the world, and the longest tunnel built under the Interstate program.

• What had been planned as an I-470 beltway around Denver, Colorado exists in three sections: C-470, E-470 (eastern extension) and the Northwest Parkway (originally conceived of as W-470). E-470 intersects I-70 in Aurora and C-470 intersects I-70 in Golden. The beltway is not complete, the gap being between Golden in the west (north end of C-470 at US-6) and Broomfield in the northwest (west end of the Northwest Parkway at US-36).

• There are no immediate plans to promote the 470s (as they are known in Colorado) to interstate status.

• A section of the highway is displayed in the video game Syphon Filter 2 as an escape route for the protagonist.

Kansas

I-70 crossing on the Lewis & Clark Viaduct over the Kansas River from Kansas to Missouri in Kansas City.

• The Kansas portion of I-70 was the first segment to start being paved and to be completed in the interstate system.
• I-70 is given the nickname "Main Street of Kansas" as the interstate extends from the Western border to the Eastern border covering 424 miles and passing through most of the state's principal cities in the process.
• The highway gave its name to the "I-70 Killer," a serial killer who committed a string of murders within a few miles of it in several Midwestern states in the 1980s. No suspect has ever been apprehended despite the widespread publicity the murders have generated, including their being featured several times on the television show America's Most Wanted.
• I-70 also carries the distinction of having the closest distance between two distinct child interstates with the same child interstate number. I-470 near Topeka, Kansas and I-470 on the east side of Kansas City, Missouri are approximately 72 miles apart.
• The section from Topeka, Kansas to Kansas City, Kansas is part of the Kansas Turnpike and has tolls. The Easternmost Terminal is at Bonner Springs, Kansas. The section from Bonner Springs to 18th Street (U.S. Route 69) in Kansas City, Kansas, is part of the Kansas Turnpike but is free.
  • I-70, just like I-75, has only two sections of highway that are tolled. The eastern tolled portion of the Kansas Turnpike is one; the section of the Pennsylvania Turnpike between New Stanton and Breezewood is the other.
• The section from 18th Street to Missouri is free and called the Jay B. Dillingham Memorial Highway for a former Kansas City Stockyards chairman Jay B. Dillingham. The highway passes over the former stockyards when it crosses the Kansas River on the Lewis & Clark Viaduct into Missouri.

Interstate 70 in Saline County

I-44/55/64/70 on one highway sign in downtown St. Louis

• The 1985 World Series between the Kansas City Royals and St. Louis Cardinals was nicknamed the "I-70 Series" because St. Louis and Kansas City are the two endpoints of I-70 in Missouri and the highway passed both Busch Stadium and Royals Stadium. The Kansas City portion is called "The George Brett Super Highway" after the Royals third baseman.
• In Kansas City, Missouri, I-670 cuts directly through the downtown while I-70 bypasses the taller buildings a few blocks north near the Missouri River. Westbound I-670 is also designated Alternate I-70 making this the only permanent "alternate" interstate in the country. The pair, along with US 71, US 24, US 40, US 169, I-35, and I-29, creates the downtown freeway loop, also known as the "Alphabet loop". Most of the interstates in this loop are in their second mile, so all exits (no matter the which interstate carries the road) are numbered 2 and suffixed with every letter of the alphabet except I, O and Z.
• The section of I-70 in Downtown Kansas City is approximately the southern city limits of "City of Kansas" when it was incorporated in 1853. The first two auto bridges in Missouri mark the city's original boundaries with the Broadway Bridge (Kansas City) (U.S. Route 169) being the west boundary while the Heart of America Bridge (Route 9) is the east boundary.

• In St. Louis, Missouri, I-70 spawns two child routes: I-170, or the Innerbelt Expressway, and I-270, or the American Veterans Memorial Highway.
• Route 370 is a spur of I-70. The 12-mile (19-km) freeway gives area commuters an alternate route across the Missouri River, allowing them to avoid the congestion on I-70's Blanchette Memorial Bridge crossing of the Missouri River. Route 370 runs from I-270 at the Bridgeton/Hazelwood city boundary (at Exit 22B) to I-70 in St. Peters (at Exit 224). Westbound Route 370 is designated as an Alternate I-70 route for traffic coming from Westbound I-270. According to a MoDOT official, MoDOT submitted Route 370 to AASHTO for upgrade to Interstate status, but AASHTO wanted Route 370 to be renamed as I-870, while MoDOT wanted it named I-370.^{[citation needed]}
• The City of St. Louis portion is called "The Mark McGwire Highway" after the Cardinals first baseman.
• At the Poplar Street Bridge, I-70 is part of a three-interstate concurrency along with I-55 and I-64. This is the one of the few three-interstate concurrencies in the country.
• Most of the highway in Missouri is four-lane. Various proposals have been made to widen it (at an estimated cost of $3.5 billion)[] including turning it into a toll road.^[6]

The 0 milepost for I-70 is on I-270 at the New Chain of Rocks Bridge. The intersection of I-55/70 and I-270 is 15 miles from the New Chain of Rocks Bridge, and 20 miles from the Poplar Street Bridge, where I-55/70 actually enters Illinois. This means the mileposts in Illinois are five miles lower than they should be. If one were to travel on eastbound I-70 near the intersection, one would see mile marker 16 following mile marker 20. Furthermore, on westbound I-70, the intersection of I-70, I-55, and I-270 is exits 15 A&B. Five miles further westbound on I-55/70, Illinois Route 159 is also exits 15 A&B.

Ohio

• Interstate 70 enters Ohio just east of Richmond, IN. Immediately after crossing into Ohio, eastbound travelers are greeted by a unique teal-blue arch that spans the width of the freeway, with a "Welcome to Ohio" sign above the eastbound lanes. A sign thanking travelers for visiting Ohio is mounted on the other wide of the arch for westbound travelers.
• Continuing eastbound, I-70 intersects Interstate 75 north of Dayton, OH , followed by I-675 on the east side of Dayton.
• Springfield is the next city, site of Buck Creek State Park.
• I-70 then encounters the largest city in Ohio, Columbus. Columbus is bounded by I-270, and is roughly centered around the intersection of I-70 and Interstate 71, which share the same asphalt through a notoriously congested 1.5-mile stretch locally known as "The Split." The Split will be reconstructed within the next few years. Interstate 670 connects Port Columbus International Airport with I-270, I-71, and I-70.
• East of Columbus, I-70 passes through Zanesville, OH and on to Cambridge, OH where it intersects Interstate 77.
• Continuing on towards West Virginia, I-70 intersects Interstate 470 just east of St. Clairsville, Ohio. I-470 is primarily used for through traffic, as it is actually shorter to travel I-470 through Wheeling than to continue on I-70.
• In March of 1995, a hole (from a former coal mine) opened up on the eastbound side of I-70 in Guernsey County near Old Washington, causing traffic to be rerouted onto US 40 between Old Washington and Cambridge for several months.

West Virginia

Crossing the Ohio River at Wheeling

The section of I-70 in West Virginia crosses the Ohio River at Wheeling, runs through the Wheeling Tunnel, I-70 has only one through lane in each direction at the tunnel. A major interchange was planned but never completed on the east side of the Wheeling Tunnel. Several of the ramps can be seen ending in mid-air where WV 2 was to go north over Wheeling Hill. Upon merging with I-470, I-70 goes uphill towards Dallas, West Virginia, the part of the road is called "two mile hill." Known locally for the many accidents at the bottom of the hill. I-70 has brought major development in Ohio County, West Virginia in the past few years. On the north side of the highway a former strip mine is being developed into a retail area called "The Highlands" bringing much needed jobs to the area. The road continues towards the Pennsylvania border.

Pennsylvania

Main article: Interstate 70 in Pennsylvania

• Drivers on I-70 near Breezewood, Pennsylvania have to leave the freeway and travel a few blocks on US 30 through traffic lights -- rare on an interstate -- before returning to the freeway. There used to be a sign of a policeman pointing at drivers where eastbound I-70 leaves the Pennsylvania Turnpike, saying, "You! Slow Down!" This could be fixed by building a direct connection between the PA Turnpike and the freeway section of I-70. However, it is argued that building a direct connection between the two would disrupt the economy in Breezewood, which serves motorists passing through the town. Map Aerial photo Photos of Eastbound I-70 with traffic lights: [1], [2] from [3].
• The 38 miles (61km) of I-70 between Washington, Pennsylvania and New Stanton, Pennsylvania is a sub-standard section of the highway. This section of I-70 used to be Pennsylvania Route 71. It is characterized by sharp curves, limited sight distance, narrow shoulders, and lack of merge lanes at interchanges. Traffic on clover leaf ramps must weave in the right through lane of traffic due to the lack of a third lane for entering and exiting traffic. Other on and off ramps effectively function as RIRO, making for a nerveracking entrance if traffic is approaching. The speed limit on this stretch is 55 mph (90 km/h)
• I-70 went through Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania at one point; its original route has been incorporated into I-376, as well as parts of I-76, I-279 and I-79.

Maryland

Main article: Interstate 70 in Maryland

• Near I-70's eastern end Baltimore, Maryland, a sign announcing the distances to Columbus, Ohio; St. Louis, Missouri; Denver, Colorado; and Cove Fort, Utah near the freeway's western terminus, has sprung up in the highway's median (Photo: [4] from [5]). This sign was intended as a test of the Clearview typeface used as an alternate to FHWA Series E-Modified, the font currently used on most American highway signs.
• I-70 was originally supposed to continue to downtown Baltimore. Due to opposition from communities, the plan was modified for the highway to intersect with Interstate 95 in Baltimore. After further protest from environmental groups, this plan was scrapped. The intersection to I-95 (which was most likely intended as a three-way directional interchange) and the spur route to downtown (I-170) had already been built before plans were cancelled. In addition to the I-95 and I-170 interchanges, exits were also planned for Hilton Parkway, Frederick Avenue and Wilkens Avenue in West Baltimore. The signs for I-170, which ended up not connected to any other Interstate highway, are now replaced with signs for US 40, and I-70 terminates at the exit for Security Boulevard (Maryland Route 122) in the western Baltimore suburb of Woodlawn, even though traffic heading eastbound is informed that "I-70 ends at I-695". The pavement of the interstate runs into a Park and Ride. The only remaining sign of the planned extension into downtown are exit ramps to nowhere on I-95. Aerial photo, Map of planned extension
• The aforementioned I-170 ends shortly beyond the U.S. Route 1 (Fulton Avenue/Monroe Street) junction. No traffic is allowed on this part of the freeway (all traffic must utilize the exit ramp back to surface streets and U.S. 40), although streetlights and an empty sign bridge serve as proof that I-170 was to be extended beyond this point, along with vacant ramps to/from US 1. After the I-70 extension was scrapped, I-170 was to continue towards I-95 and be renamed I-595. After that plan fell through, US 40 was rerouted to the old I-170 freeway. A ramp stub onto southbound I-95, the most obvious clue that I-70/I-595 was planned to intersect there, has been demolished.
• At Frederick, Maryland, I-70 split into two branches: I-70N, which led into Baltimore, and I-70S, which took a path into the Washington, D.C., area. I-70N is now I-70, while I-70S has been renamed I-270. The I-70S designation was also used for the current I-70 freeway in Western Pennsylvania. (There are signs along U.S. 40 in Baltimore that still depict the I-70 freeway as I-70N. Trucks are directed onto it via I-695.)
• Near Hancock, Maryland, heading westbound on I-70, there are many signs for Interstate 68 to encourage drivers to bypass the Pennsylvania Turnpike by going through Cumberland, Maryland, and Morgantown, West Virginia, and then taking Interstate 79 to get back to I-70 at Washington, Pennsylvania. There is also a sign near the Maryland Route 68 exit to disambiguate the same numbered route within Maryland, so that drivers would not be confused between those two roads. The exit at Hancock, Maryland, for Interstate 68 is where I-70 makes a sharp turn to the north and even backtracking a little eastbound for drivers heading westbound when heading to Breezewood, Pennsylvania.
• Interstate 370, a short spur route off of Maryland's I-270 in Gaithersburg, never intersects with I-70, its parent route.

In Maryland, Interstate 70 runs horizontally from the Pennsylvania state line near Hancock east across the central portion of the state towards Baltimore, following the route of the National Road, now known as U.S. 40. ...
