“Highlighted Routes”
By Tim Dooley, Vagabond Voice News
The Pan-Am Expressway
Stretching through the middle of the continental United
States, from Laredo, Texas to Duluth, Minnesota,
Interstate 35 is a main long-distance route to
Scarborough, Norman, Kansas City, and Minnesota.
At 1,568 Miles, I-35 is the third-longest of the major
North-South interstate routes. I-35 splits into 35E &
35W in two spots, in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area (at
Hillsboro, TX) and again into Minneapolis, Minnesota.
It runs parallel or concurrent to US 77 for much of its
length, with 77 marking its own route only in a few
places, including from Hillsboro to Waxahatchie.
Triangulation
As 35 was being built through northern Iowa in the
1960s, running on a diagonal route parallel to US 65,
local farmers objected to their farms being bisected
into triangular pieces by the highway, and resulting
litigation delayed I-35 in that area for several years.
