Interstate 80 Business (I-80 Bus) is an Interstate business route in Humboldt County, Nevada. Serving the city of Winnemucca along Winnemucca Boulevard, I-80 Bus is also cosigned along portions of three other state highways through the city:

Route description

[edit]
View south along SR 289 at SR 794 in Winnemucca. Note no directional signage for I-80 Bus. This is because I-80 Bus follows both SR 794 east (to the left) and SR 289 south (straight ahead) from this intersection.

I-80 Bus starts south of the incorporated city at exit 176 on I-80/US 95. The highway heads northeast concurrent with US 95 and parallel to US 80 and a railway through Winnemucca. Traveling further north, the route gets to an intersection with Melarkey Street, where US 95 leaves I-80 Bus and runs north under I-80. At this intersection, the business loop now runs concurrently with SR 289 until it branches off to the east, and SR 289 continues to the northeast under I-80. Over the final stretch from this intersection to its eastern terminus at exit 180 on I-80, I-80 Bus runs concurrently with SR 794, also named East Winnemucca Boulevard.

History

[edit]

The I-80 Bus designation was first approved by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) at its spring meeting on June 28, 1982.[5]
