State Route 539 (SR 539), named the Meridian Street in Bellingham, Guide Meridian Road elsewhere, and commonly known as The Guide, is a state highway in Washington, U.S.A. It runs for 15.16 miles〔 from Bellingham in the south to the U.S.-Canadian border at Lynden-Langley in the north. The road is so named because it follows the Guide Meridian between R2E and R3E, 12 miles east of the Willamette Meridian. == Route description == SR 539 begins at Exit 256 of Interstate 5 just south of the Bellis Fair Mall, approximately four miles north of downtown Bellingham. From there it proceeds due north to the Canadian border between Lynden and the Township of Langley, British Columbia. Once past the Bellis Fair Mall immediately north of the I-5 interchange, SR 539 continues through the shopping centers of the northern outskirts of Bellingham; Whatcom Community College and the Cordata Business Park are also nearby. North of Bellingham, it passes through the small town of Laurel, which contains Meridian High School. It then passes over Wiser Lake and the Nooksack River, before arriving in Lynden, home to a municipal airport. At Lynden it changes from 4 lanes to 2 as it proceeds north to the border near Aldergrove, British Columbia, Canada. The entire route from I-5 to the border is perfectly straight north–south. It serves mostly traffic from Bellingham (and I-5) to the city of Lynden, although it also serves the Everson-Nooksack-Sumas area via State Route 544. It also provides an alternate route into Canada when the border crossings at Blaine on I-5 and State Route 543 are backed up. 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「Washington State Route 539」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
