Wyoming Roads - I-80



The shield above hangs on my wall. All other photos are courtesy Michael Summa and were taken in the 1970's-80's.


You'd be hard-pressed to find any relatives of this westbound sign anymore, as US 187 hasn't existed since 1982. It was replaced by part of US 191, since 187 existed entirely within Wyoming. This photo was taken in 1976.


Button copy westbound at the end of the triplex with WY 789 and I-80/US 30, 1976.


The other end of the triplex, EB in 1985.


This triplex exists around the west side of Laramie. Note the smaller US shields as well as the 2-digit width of the US 287 shield. Taken in 1976.


Southwest of Laramie in 1981, WY 130 to WY 12 is the old route of US 30, and WY 230 hasn't yet begun.


Off Exit 323 in 1981. I wonder why the lowest point isn't commemorated.


Signs getting back on the highway from that same exit, same year.


Heading out of a truck stop near Cheyenne on old US 30, taken in 1981.

The rest of the photos on this page were taken in 1976.


Irregular shield size, as if the NORTH were moved from the right side and the arrow moved up, and then the shields replaced. Everything else in Wyoming that Michael sent me looks uniform (just look at the next photo up), so this is surprising.


Two of the four perspectives are captured, in Cheyenne.

Finally, entering the state from Nebraska.
