The Interstate That Isn't...

The newest addition to the interstate system doesn't bare the name, "Interstate," but has a new designation instead.  It looks like the other interstates and it's treated like other interstates, so why the name difference?

Liberty 41 is the newest spur-like highway off of Interstate 5, but instead of naming this road I-105 or I-205, the federal highway department, LibDOT said they had to create a new name because the highway did not fit any of the definitions of an interstate road.  The new designation is just a different way of naming the highway, without having to amend the bylaws governing the interstate.  "It was easier for us to create the new designation, than to try to have the definition appended or changed," says LibDOT Parliamentarian, John Lisby.

L-41 will start at Interstate 5 in Crater Harbor, run through the state capitol of Naiads, which has not been built, and end at Interstate 6 in Fairfax Square, Messor.

The Nation's Tenth Interstate

Interstate 7 has become the tenth and newest installment of the nation's federal interstate system.  It begins in Knotted Tree Village, MS, and now terminates in Wraithstone, MS, a city just east of Knotted Tree Village.  The Department of Transportation (LibDOT) and the Liberty Highway and Transportation Officials (LibHTO) have announced plans to expand the Interstate across the south from Messor to Cantena Mons.  LibDOT and LibHTO have also announced that Interstate 7 will likely not be the final interstate and have plans to build five more.

The Nations First Interstate Highway is Completed

Interstate 2, the nations first interstate highway is finally completed.  It started in Port Jupiter, MS, and from there, went north to Big Dipper, DR, and South to end up in Knotted Tree Village, MS.  Other cities it passes through:  Marion, MS, Ranch Valley, MS, Bowerstone, MS, and Port Prosperity, MS.

The first completed interstate highway was Interstate 1, the second interstate highway to be constructed.  Interstate 1 begins in Big Dipper, DR and passes through Borealis, DR, Polaris, DR, South Gemini, DR, Argo Navis, DR, and Cliff River, CM.  Interstate 1 ends in Canyon Stream, CM, where it merges onto Interstate 8.

Other completed interstate highways include I-103S, a spur that runs through Knighton, MS, and I-106S, a spur that runs through Argo Navis, CM (not to be confused with Argo Navis, DR).

Interstate 2 was created before Interstate 1 because of the interstate naming system in Liberty.  An north-south interstate highway are even numbered, east-west interstate highways are odd numbered.  Loops and spurs are three-digits, the first digit being odd if it goes through the target city, and the even if it goes around the city.  The last two digits are numbered according to the interstate highway from which they originate; for example, Interstate 103S is a spur off of Interstate 3 that passes through its target city, Knighton.
