List of Interstate Highways

There are 71 primary Interstate Highways in the Interstate Highway System, a network of freeways in the United States. These primary highways are assigned one- or two-digit route numbers, whereas their associated auxiliary Interstate Highways receive three-digit route numbers. Typically, even-numbered Interstates run east–west, with lower numbers in the south and higher numbers in the north; odd-numbered Interstates run north–south, with lower numbers in the west and higher numbers in the east. Route numbers divisible by 5 usually represent major coast-to-coast or border-to-border routes (ex. I-10 connects Santa Monica, California to Jacksonville, Florida, extending between the Pacific and Atlantic oceans). Auxiliary highways have an added digit prefixing the number of the parent highway.

Five route numbers are duplicated in the system; the corresponding highways are in different regions, reducing potential confusion. In addition to primary highways in the contiguous United States, there are signed Interstates in Hawaii and unsigned Interstates in Alaska and Puerto Rico. Template:TOClimit

Other regions

In addition to the 48 contiguous states, Interstate Highways are found in Hawaii, Alaska, and Puerto Rico. The Federal Highway Administration funds four routes in Alaska and three routes in Puerto Rico under the same program as the rest of the Interstate Highway System. However, these routes are not required to meet the same standards as the mainland routes:

Hawaii

The Interstate Highways on the island of [[Oahu|OTemplate:Okinaahu]], Hawaii are signed with the standard Interstate Highway shield, with the letter "H-" prefixed before the number. They are fully controlled-access routes built to the same standards as the mainland Interstate Highways.

Alaska

Map of the Interstates in Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico signs its Interstate Highways as territorial routes, as the numbers do not match their official Interstate Highway designations. Many of the territory's routes are freeway-standard toll roads.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Template:Routelist top Template:Routelist row Template:Routelist row Template:Routelist row Template:Routelist bottom
