Missouri Route 240
Route 240 is a highway in the central part of Missouri. Its eastern terminus is at Interstate 70/U.S. Route 40 about two miles (3 km) west of Columbia; its western terminus is at U.S. Route 65 in Marshall. Spur Route 240 connects the road with Rocheport.
From 1922 until 1926, Route 240 from Rocheport to Fayette was Route 67. It was renumbered Route 3 in 1926; that route has since been extended north and truncated, leaving Route 240 behind.
The highway was mentioned in the title of David R. Holsinger's four-movement piece "One Day In a Small Town...". The fourth movement is titled "Chasing the Band Bus on MO240".
==Route Description==
Route 240 begins its journey east in Marshall at U.S. Route 65, concurrent with southbound Business Loop 65. Less than ½ mile down the road, Route 240 dumps Business Loop 65 and picks up southbound Route 41. Route 41 leaves a few miles east of Marshall, leaving Route 240 to head on its own. Route 240 heads north-northeast through gently rolling hills to Slater, where Route turns east. The highway then passes through Gilliam, crosses the Missouri River, then enters Glasgow. At the Glasgow end of the bridge, Route 240 becomes concurrent with the southbound directions of Route 5 and Route 87, and at the same time gains a business loop. As the highway exits Glasgow, Routes 5 and 240 turn off of Route 87 and head east-northeast (despite being signed as a southbound direction) until meeting the other end of Business Loop 240, after which the duplex turns east. The duplex later turns south-south east and meets the southern terminus of Route 3. North of Fayette, Route 240 turns off of Route 5, but still heads in the southeasterly direction as it passes through Downtown Fayette. South of the city, Route 240 serves as the western end of Route 124. Route 240 then becomes hillier until it meets U.S. Route 40, where it flattens out and meets Alternate Route 240, which provides easier access from eastbound Route 240 to westbound Route 40, and vice versa. Mainline Route 240 then turns east onto US 40. Routes 40 and 240 cross Moniteau Creek and enter Boone County. After passing through Midway, Route 240 comes to its end at Interstate 70. Highway 40 then merges onto eastbound I-70.
