✵ Why Doesn't Arizona Have More Interstate Highways?
✵ Throughout the history of American transportation, the interstate system has been such an important and influential factor. Every state has its own unique history of how these highways were built and planned. Over the latter half of the 20th century, A freeway boom took place throughout the country, with every state approving their plans and constructing massive highways within their cities and connecting their cities. This was especially common in more suburban regions where there was less history and dense urbanization, making it easier to construct these large freeways and interstate highways. If we look at somewhere like Texas, the amount of interstates throughout this state is very high, and it played a role in how cities developed. Now when you think about these very suburban cities, the two cities that immediately come to mind for me are Houston & Phoenix. Two very similar metropolitan areas, but there's actually a pretty major difference. Houston has several major interstates and spur routes, while Phoenix has just two interstates, I-17 & I-10, with I-8 connecting to the south of the metro. There are actually 0 spur routes in all of Arizona, a state you’d expect to see a lot more interstate expansion in, so today I’m going to tell you why.
