Interstate 155 (I-155) is a north–south spur of Interstate 55 that provides an interstate connection for the Illinois cities of Peoria and Lincoln. The northern terminus for the interstate is just east of Peoria, at Interstate 74 exit 101 in Morton. The southern terminus, which is northwest of Lincoln, is located on I-55 at exit 127. The interstate is long.〔 I-155 was created to replace Illinois Route 121 (abbreviated IL 121). Prompted by safety concerns at a major intersection near Morton, state transportation officials replaced the entire route with a limited-access freeway. The interstate was built in several segments from 1970 to 1992, a period that included a ten-year delay due to a lawsuit over right-of-way. I-155 fully opened to traffic on October 29, 1992.〔〔 == Route description == Interstate 155 runs north from Interstate 55 just northwest of Lincoln, intersecting U.S. Route 136 east of Emden. north of U.S. 136, eastbound Illinois Route 122 joins I-155 traveling north, directly east of Delavan. The two highways run concurrent for before Illinois 122 runs east to Hopedale. Further north, the highway crosses the Mackinaw River beside a steel truss bridge serving old Illinois Route 121. East of Tremont, I-155 intersects Illinois Route 9. later is Main Street, the first of three northbound exits to Morton. (There are only two southbound exits, at Queenwood Road and Illinois Route 98 – Birchwood Street). The highway passes to the west of Morton before intersecting Interstate 74 at a trumpet interchange about southeast of downtown Peoria.〔 Surrounded mostly by prime land used for farming soybeans and corn, Interstate 155 is a four-lane freeway through rural central Illinois. In addition to Morton, Peoria, and Lincoln, I-155 also serves a number of small farm towns located between Peoria and Lincoln. The largest city directly served by I-155 is Tremont; however, the highway mainly carries traffic traveling to and from Peoria and Springfield. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Interstate 155 (Illinois)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
