List of Missouri highways
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
State highways in Missouri were first designated in 1922 and Missouri's system was used (along with Wisconsin's) as a plan for the entire U.S. Highway System which was created in 1926.[citation needed] In Missouri, odd-numbered highways run north-south and even-numbered highways run east-west (with a few exceptions, such as Route 112). Missouri also maintains a secondary set of roads, Missouri supplemental routes which are "lettered" rather than numbered.
Missouri has also changed highway designations with a US highway or an interstate with the same number is designated through the state (Route 40 was redesignated Route 14 to avoid duplicating numbers with U.S. Highway 40 which also passes through the state).
In some states (such as Arkansas), highways are not allowed to be continuous. Missouri overlaps highways in order to maintain continuity.
The Missouri Department of Transportation routinely uses the term "Route" in reference to the names of the roads. However, Missouri statutes define them as "State Highways". Missourians use the term 'Route' and 'Highway' when refering to a state roadways. Older generations refer to all roads as 'Highway' XX. So I-70 or State Route 35 would both be called Highway 70 and Highway 35. Younger generations are starting to refer to the types of roads, like I-70 and State Route 35.

[edit] Decommissioned State Highways
This is a list of decommissioned highways as assigned in 1922. All numbers from Missouri 1 to Missouri 72 were issued. From Missouri 72 to Missouri 98, only even numbers were issued. If the highway is not listed here, it is a current highway and is listed above.
In 1926, the U.S. Highway System was created and many of the highways listed below became part of a new US highway; in some cases, a highway's number was changed so as not to conflict with a US highway number (or, later, an interstate highway number) which came through Missouri.

[edit] Later decommissioned routes
Highways added after 1922, but have since been decommissioned.
[edit] Proposed
Missouri highways proposed, but for some reason were never built. Missouri 221 is currently being studied.
