Missouri Roads - Bus. I-44 Pacific/old US 66 Franklin Co.

(Pacific) and former US 66 in Franklin County


All photos are eastbound except a brief diversion.


Starting in Sullivan, picking up MO 30 at I-44 Exit 239.


Just west of MO 30, old US 66 WB branches off to the right of the south frontage road and dead-ends at I-44.


Back on course and into St. Clair.

The only TV Set Highway in MO that I know of, or hand-drawn by 9th graders learning geometry.


Old US 66 crosses US 50 and picks up former US 50 as well. There's a more famous motel after this on MO 100 (see link below, then return here).


Business I-44/old US 66 in Pacific, up to Lamar Pkwy. at I-44 EB Exit 257. If you don't understand why a town named Pacific would be in the middle of the country, it was named for the Missouri-Pacific (MoPac) Railroad, which has at least one remnant, along MO 366.

This junction named for someone who tripped on the sidewalk here in 1921.
