About: Interstate 68

An Entity of Type: infrastructure, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Interstate 68 (I-68) is a 112.9-mile (181.7 km) Interstate Highway in the US states of West Virginia and Maryland, connecting I-79 in Morgantown, West Virginia, to I-70 in Hancock, Maryland. I-68 is also Corridor E of the Appalachian Development Highway System. From 1965 until the freeway's construction was completed in 1991, it was designated as U.S. Route 48 (US 48). In Maryland, the highway is known as the National Freeway, an homage to the historic National Road, which I-68 parallels between Keysers Ridge and Hancock. The freeway mainly spans rural areas and crosses numerous mountain ridges along its route. A road cut at Sideling Hill exposed geological features of the mountain and has become a tourist attraction.

I-68 is also Corridor E of the Appalachian Development Highway System. From 1965 until the freeway's construction was completed in 1991, it was designated as U.S. Route 48 (US 48). In Maryland, the highway is known as the National Freeway, an homage to the historic National Road, which I-68 parallels between Keysers Ridge and Hancock. The freeway mainly spans rural areas and crosses numerous mountain ridges along its route. A road cut at Sideling Hill exposed geological features of the mountain and has become a tourist attraction. US 219 and US 220 overlap I-68 in Garrett County and Cumberland, respectively, and US 40 overlaps with the freeway from Keysers Ridge to the eastern end of the freeway at Hancock. The construction of I-68 began in 1965 and continued for over 25 years, with completion on August 2, 1991. While the road was under construction, it was predicted that economic conditions would improve along the corridor for the five counties connected by I-68: Allegany, Garrett, and Washington in Maryland and Preston and Monongalia in West Virginia. The two largest cities connected by the highway are Morgantown, West Virginia, and Cumberland, Maryland. Although the freeway serves no major metropolitan areas, it provides a major transportation route in western Maryland and northern West Virginia and also provides an alternative to the Pennsylvania Turnpike for westbound traffic from Washington, D.C., and Baltimore. Various West Virginia officials have proposed extending the highway westward to the Ohio Valley, ending in either Moundsville, West Virginia, or Wheeling, West Virginia. An extension to Moundsville was approved by federal officials at one point but shelved due to funding problems. (en)
  • L'Interstate 68 (I-68), est une autoroute inter-États de 112,90 miles (181,70 km) de long, située au nord-est des États-Unis. Elle relie les villes de Morgantown, Virginie-Occidentale à Hancock, Maryland. Originellement nommée U.S. Highway 48 pendant sa construction, elle fut finalement baptisée Interstate 68 en 1989. La construction de l'autoroute s'est commencée en 1965 et s'est échelonnée sur plus de 25 ans, jusqu'en août 1991. Les deux plus grandes villes sur le trajet de l'I-68 sont Morgantown, Virginie-Occidentale et Cumberland, Maryland. Bien que l'autoroute ne desserve aucune région métropolitaine, elle constitue un lien important entre l'ouest du Maryland et la Virginie-Occidentale. Elle constitue aussi une alternative au Pennsylvania Turnpike pour les automobilistes en provenance de Washington D.C. et de Baltimore qui se dirigent vers l'ouest. (fr)
  • 주간고속도로 제68호선(영어: Interstate 68, I-68)은 미국 동부 웨스트버지니아주 모건타운(Morgantown)과 동부 메릴랜드주 핸콕(Hancock)을 연결하는 총 연장 181.7km의 고속도로이다. 68호선은 1965년에 공사를 시작하여 25년만인 1991년 8월 2일에 완공되어 미국 국도 제48호선으로 지정되었다. 공사 기간이 다른 도로보다 훨씬 더 길었던 이유는 68호선이 높은 고개, 절벽과 산간지대를 연결하기 때문이다. 나중에 주간고속도로로 승격시키는 공사를 벌여 68호선으로 등재되었다. 당시 68호선의 공사가 한창이었을 때 많은 사람들은 68호선 주변의 도시에서 경제가 나아질 것이라는 예측을 내놓았다. 68호선이 연결하는 두 개의 큰 도시는 웨스트버지니아 주의 모건타운과 메릴랜드 주의 컴벌랜드이며 두 곳 모두 인구가 3만명을 넘지 않는다. 68호선은 시골 지역과 소도시만을 연결하나 웨스트버지니아 주의 북부와 메릴랜드 주의 서부를 연결하는 유일한 도로이며 워싱턴 D.C.와 볼티모어에서 출발하여 클리블랜드, 디트로이트와 시카고 등지로 향하는 사람들에게는 70호선과 76호선의 통행량이 많은 중첩구간을 피해서 갈 수 있는 유일한 도로이다.
