Iowa Highway 192 (Iowa 192) is a north–south highway within the city limits of Council Bluffs, Iowa. It has a length of . It begins and an interchange with Interstate 29 (I-29) and I-80 in the southern part of the city. It briefly overlaps U.S. Route 6 (US 6) near downtown. It ends at another interchange with I-29 just south of the northern city limits. Iowa 192 existed from the 1930s to the 1970s in a route similar to what is used today. That route served as an access road from downtown Council Bluffs to Lake Manawa State Park. It was redesignated in 1980 along its current routing. ==Route description== Iowa 192 begins at an interchange with I-29 / I-80 in southern Council Bluffs. It heads north along the four-lane South Expressway parallel to a line of the BNSF Railway. A grain elevator towers over the road and railway just north of the I-29 / I-80 interchange. Between 23rd and 19th avenues, the highway eases one block to the west. North of the stoplight at 19th Avenue, it becomes an elevated highway in order to avoid level crossings with the multiple railroad tracks that pass beneath. Immediately after crossing 9th Street, the elevated highway returns to the surface and the two directions of traffic split into a one-way couplet – S. 6th Street northbound and S. 7th Street southbound. The division of the two directions also marks the end of the South Expressway.〔 As Iowa 192 approaches the west side downtown Council Bluffs, it passes the historic Pottawattamie County Jail, a three-story rotary jail used from 1885 to 1969. At W. Kanesville Boulevard, which carries US 6, the one-way couplet ends and Iowa 192 turns west onto Kanesville. Shortly thereafter, the street turns into Broadway. US 6 and Iowa 192 head west together along W. Broadway and over a viaduct over a line of the Union Pacific Railroad.〔 One block after the viaduct returns to street level, Iowa 192 leaves US 6. It travels north through a residential area along N. 16th Street. Shortly after crossing a Canadian National Railway line, the road becomes a divided highway. Iowa 192 ends as it merges into I-29 traffic close to the northern city limits of Council Bluffs. There is no access to southbound I-29 from northbound Iowa 192. Likewise, northbound I-29 traffic cannot access southbound Iowa 192.〔 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「Iowa Highway 192」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
