River crossings...
You ought to explain where (by milepost) there are any crossings of major rivers, such as the North Platte River.47.215.183.159 (talk) 12:00, 28 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

I-25 Business in Buffalo edit

Latest comment: 5 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

In the Casper to Buffalo section, the final sentence currently reads:

Buffalo's I-25 Bus. and US 87 Bus. have their northern termini at a partial interchange just west of the I-25–I-90 junction.^[1]

I don't think this — or Google Maps — is up to date. First, the cited source appears to have been moved since I get a broken link. WYDOT's 2017 Maintenance Section Reference Book^[2] (the 98th page in the PDF since there are two initial unnumbered pages, Johnson County, the ML-59B table) appears to be a comparable source. If I'm interpreting it correctly, US 87 Business travels the full length from milepost 298.024 (the South Buffalo interchange at I-25 exit 298) to milepost 301.338 (the North Buffalo interchange at I-90 exit 56A [EB exit only, WB entrance only]).

However, I-25 Business only goes from milepost 298.024 (South Buffalo interchange) to milepost 299.697, which has the notation "End ... I-25 Bus." Milepost 299.697 would appear to be where US 16 and I-90 Business turn east onto Hart St. They're described in the ML-1001B table, which makes no mention of I-25 Business. I conclude that the current north terminus of I-25 Business is at milepost 299.697, the intersection locally named North Main Street and East Hart Street.

Could someone verify I'm interpreting the WYDOT reference correctly? Thank you!

(Yes, replying to my own post.) Google Streetview^[3], which reports being driven July 2018, shows an I-25 Business loop shield at the North Buffalo interchange EB exit. I'm not certain how to resolve the inconsistency between the signage and the log book. Msramming (talk) 01:25, 3 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
