U.S. 1 is a very well-known route, linking Fort Kent, ME to Key West, FL. Although it parallels Interstate 95 for much of its route, it goes into cities that are not served by I-95: Raleigh, NC; Columbia, SC; and Augusta, GA. Also, U.S. 1 serves the same major cities on the East Coast that I-95 does: Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, Richmond, Jacksonville and Miami. U.S. 2 is designated for two different roads. One route links Houlton, ME to Rouses Point, NY; the other connects St. Ignace, MI to Everett, WA. U.S. 3 is a short highway that runs from Connecticut Lakes, NH to Boston, MA. The majority of its route parallels Interstate 93. U.S. 4 links Portsmouth, NH to East Greenbush, NY. It is signed north-south in New York State, and east-west in the other states it goes through. U.S. 5 goes from Derby Line, VT to New Haven, CT. It closely parallels Interstate 91 for all of its route. U.S. 6 is a transcontinental route that runs from Provincetown, MA to Bishop, CA. From 1937 to 1964, it continued to Long Beach, CA, making it the longest U.S. highway. U.S. 7 is another short highway in the New England states. It links Highgate Springs, VT to Norwalk, CT. U.S. 8 runs from Norway, MI to Forest Lake, MN. It used to end in Minneapolis before Interstste 35W replaced it. U.S. 9 runs from Champlain County, NY to Laurel, DE. A gap exists between Cape May, NJ and Lewes, DE. A ferry connects the Delaware portion of the highway to the New Jersey part. U.S. 10 currently runs from Bay City, MI to West Fargo, ND. It originally linked Detroit to Seattle before the Interstates were built over it. It also has two sections connected by ferry, from Ludington, MI to Manitowoc, WI. |
