[edit] U.S. Highway movements in Fort Wayne

Is this right? I can't remember if U.S. 24 followed U.S. 30 or went around the other way on I-469. Also, does Indiana 37 end at I-469, or closer to Fort Wayne? —Rob (talk) 17:19, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

US-24 follows I-469 south, then west to I-69 near Fort Wayne International Airport. Before I-469 was built SR 37 continued southwest on the Maysville Turnpike, then turned west onto Stellhorn Road for about 5 miles. It then turned southwest again near IPFW before intersecting Coliseum Boulevard. From this point to SR 9/SR-37 split in Marion, SR 37 was unsigned, but followed Coliseum Blvd to I-69 south, then it turned into US-24 west to Huntington, where it followed SR-9 south to Marion.

After the completion of I-469, SR 37 was rerouted as an unsigned route along I-469, following it south and west from Exit 25 to I-69 near the Airport. From here it follows US-24 briefly along I-69, then southwest to Huntington, where it follows SR-9 as an unsigned route to Marion. The southern signed portion of SR-37 begins in Marion and continues south to Indy. User: wxstorm

[edit] Removal of stub

Why is this article a stub. The article is long enough to classify as normal page length. This article is like about 4 pages long, and they cover like enough important fact. I think we should just remove the stub tag.--Freewayguy (Webmail) 01:26, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Having a 2-sentence route description for a 30-mile Interstate is incredibly disappointing. —Scott5114 [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 04:22, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
Not only that, it needs references. —Rob (talk) 20:29, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
