South end

[edit]

What road does it connect to in Iowa?

US 169. U.S. Routes almost always keep their number across state lines. --NE2 00:34, 11 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

History of US route 169 thru Twin Cities

[edit]

Apparently US route 169 thru the Twin Cities has followed different corridors over time. Some of this is mentioned in the artcle but I see no mention of it having followed MN 100 (in the 1970s and 80 at least?) for much of the North-South traverse of the area and at some point shifting to what had been called Hennepin County 18 which is/was also a north south route that has also been upgraded toward freeway standards (in the 1980s?). Highway 18 was about 2 miles west of Hwy 100. I have a 1989 State Farm atlas whose Minneapolis-St Paul Vicinity map clearly shows 169 co-signed with Hwy 100 and seperately "State Aid County" road 18 which by that time was mostly controlled access.
