About: Mullan Road

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

Mullan Road was the first wagon road to cross the Rocky Mountains to the Inland of the Pacific Northwest. It was built by U.S. Army troops under the command of Lt. John Mullan, between the spring of 1859 and summer 1860. It led from Fort Benton, which at the time was in the Dakota Territory, then Idaho Territory from July 1863, and Montana Territory beginning in May 1864, and the navigational head of the Missouri River (and once farthest inland port in the world). The road connected to Fort Walla Walla, Washington Territory, near the Columbia River. The road previewed the route approximately followed of modern-day Interstate 15 and Interstate 90 through present-day Montana, Idaho, and Washington.

  • Mullan Road was the first wagon road to cross the Rocky Mountains to the Inland of the Pacific Northwest. It was built by U.S. Army troops under the command of Lt. John Mullan, between the spring of 1859 and summer 1860. It led from Fort Benton, which at the time was in the Dakota Territory, then Idaho Territory from July 1863, and Montana Territory beginning in May 1864, and the navigational head of the Missouri River (and once farthest inland port in the world). The road connected to Fort Walla Walla, Washington Territory, near the Columbia River. The road previewed the route approximately followed of modern-day Interstate 15 and Interstate 90 through present-day Montana, Idaho, and Washington. Parts of the Mullan Road can still be traveled; one such section is near Washtucna, Washington. A segment of the Mullan Road in the vicinity of Benton Lake was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975, and the American Society of Civil Engineers designated it a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark in 1977. Three segments of the road in Idaho were also listed on the National Register in 1990. In 2009, the Point of Rocks segment in Montana was also listed on the National Register as part of the Point of Rocks Historic Transportation Corridor. (en)
  • Mullan Road foi a primeira estrada para carroças cobertas a cruzar as Montanhas Rochosas para aceder ao chamado do Noroeste Pacífico. Foi construída sob direção do tenente John Mullan entre a primavera de 1859 e o verão de 1860. Situa-se entre Fort Benton, porto importante no rio Missouri (e que já foi o porto fluvial mais interior do mundo) até Fort Walla Walla, Território de Washington, perto do rio Colúmbia. A estrada seguia aproximadamente a rota das modernas e Interstate 90 pelo Montana, Idaho e Washington. Partes da Mullan Road ainda podem ser viajadas. Uma secção fica em Washtucna. Um troço da Mullan Road fica perto do lago Benton foi listada no National Register of Historic Places em 1975, e a American Society of Civil Engineers designou-a como monumento histórico da engenharia civil em 1977. Três segmentos da estrada no Idaho foram também listados no National Register em 1990. Em 2009, o troço de Point of Rocks no Montana passou igualmente a constar do National Register como parte do sítio denominado . (pt)
