[edit] Two I84's?
Why are there two I84's? How can there be two interstate highways that are completely seperate yet have the same name? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.252.70.47 (talk • contribs)
- They have never intersected and it was decided there was little chance for confusion between them, and they both had no other number that would work in the numbering plan...so AASHTO decided it would be okay. Same for I-82, I-88, and I-76. —Scott5114↗ 20:32, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Changing the renumbering date
The date of 1980 for the changeover between I-80N and I-84 may be wrong. The Utah Department of transportation has a copy of a scanned memo from AASHTO. This memo lists July 7th 1977 as the date the change was approved. But also gave the states until July 1st 1980 as a deadline for the states (time given to co-ordinate the change). At a minimum this is a better source than what's used, so I'll change that, this may warrant some more discussion. Also interesting in the AASHTO memo, the change was initiated by Idaho, seconded by Utah, and opposed by Washington and Oregon. the scanned memo is here: http://www.dot.utah.gov/main/uconowner.gf?n=200609181109591 Dave (talk) 00:00, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
