message: "The sections of the interstate in Missouri and Kansas have laid claim to be the first interstate in the United States." Would there be a more accurate way to word this? I don't know about Missouri, but in Kansas, there is a sign somewhere west of Topeka specifically claiming a stretch of several miles to be the first interstate in the US; in other words, I don't think Kansas claims the whole state's section of I-70 to be the first, but just those few miles.

I'm surprised to not see I-71 in Columbus, Ohio here since it's the state's capital, largest city in Ohio, and the intersection is directly connected to the other largest cities. I'm not sure how Dayton and Cambridge won their spots over Columbus on the list.

replies: text: The short answer is "national scope" verses "state scope". Agreed, local to Ohio I-71 is probably of more importance, but nationally I-75 is of greater significance, being a Canada to the Gulf through freeway. In the detail article Interstate 70 (Ohio), both are listed. With that said, you could probably make a good case for I-71 replacing I-77 in that list. Dave (talk) 21:26, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

text: The idea may have been to get West Virginia listed; there is the concept of geographic diversity in addition to the "majorness" of the intersecting road/location. Imzadi 1979 →  15:25, 2 November 2019 (UTC)

message: According to this in 2014, I-70 was truncated to I-695 as of 2014.  This is current signage at the junction.  It may have once ended at a park-and-ride.  But it no longer does.  It's not a great source, but if we can find a better one, we can update this article.  --Jayron32 14:52, 17 April 2017 (UTC)

message: I-79 interchange as a major junction is missing and they run multiplexed for a few miles near Washington, PA 2603:301F:319:8400:D11C:3280:FB20:69E7 (talk) 19:09, 17 November 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Many years ago, after being criticized for having infoboxes that were too big by others at Wikipedia,the decision was made to only feature the 10 most important interchanges in the infobox. There also is a goal of  maintain a regional balance (i.e some in the west, some in the central and some in the east). For more info on that decision, see WP:USRD/STDS. Whomever decided which were the most important 10  must have decided the I-79 interchange didn't make the cut. With that said, as I see it 2-4 need to go from the current "top 10" selection. Ohio is over-represented with 3, so I'd cut one or both of I-71 and I-77. Also I-44 and I-64 are questionable and over-represents Missouri, which is already covered by the obvious choice, I-35.
