Interstate 57(I-57) is a north–southInterstate Highwaythat currently exists in two segments. It runs throughArkansas,Missouri,andIllinois.I-57 parallels the oldIllinois Central Railroadfor much of its route north ofI-55.The Interstate begins atI-40inNorth Little Rock, Arkansas,traveling northwardconcurrentlywithU.S. Highway 67(US 67) until it reachesWalnut Ridge, Arkansas,where the Interstate ends for now. I-57 will run northward to meet up with the existing segment in southeastern Missouri. I-57 resumes its run fromSikeston, Missouri,at I-55 toChicago, Illinois,atI-94.I-57 essentially serves as a shortcut route for travelers headed between theSouthern United States(Memphis,New Orleans,etc.) and Chicago, bypassingSt. Louis, Missouri,andSpringfield, Illinois.Between the junction of I-55 and I-57 in Sikeston and the junction of I-55 andI-90/I-94 in Chicago, I-55 travels for 436 miles (702 km), while the combination of I-57 and I-94 is only 396 miles (637 km) long between the same two points. In fact, both the control cities on the overhead signs and the destination mileage signs reference Memphis along southbound I-57, even as far north as its northern origin at I-94 in Chicago.[2]Likewise, at its southern end in Missouri, Chicago is the control city listed for I-57 on signs on northbound I-55 south of Sikeston, even though I-55 also goes to Chicago.[3]
A southward extension of I-57 from Sikeston toLittle Rock, Arkansas,is currently in various stages of development. On November 7, 2024, 122.80 miles (197.63 km) of US 67 from North Little Rock to Walnut Ridge in Arkansas was officially redesignated to I-57, finally extending the Interstate to the state of Arkansas.[4]

Arkansas
editIn Arkansas, I-57 begins inNorth Little RockatI-40,running concurrently withUS 67andUS 167.I-440westbound begins at the junction of the two Interstates inJacksonville.I-57 continues northbound through Jacksonville, and the Interstate temporarily narrows from six lanes to four lanes at the Main Street interchange. I-57 is four lanes until it widens back to six lanes just north of the Vandenberg Boulevard interchange (exit 11). I-57 widens back to six lanes for five miles (8.0 km) northbound until an interchange withHighway 5(AR 5) andAR 89inCabot.At this point, the Interstate reverts to four lanes as it continues north through Cabot.[a]After the AR 5/AR 89 interchange in Cabot, I-57 reverts to four lanes until it ends inWalnut Ridge.InBeebe,US 64runs concurrently with the Interstate and continues east for 27 miles (43 km) until exit 55 inBald Knobwhere US 64 splits off to the east and US 167 splits off to the north toBatesville.I-57 continues northbound from Bald Knob, throughNewportto Walnut Ridge, where it runs concurrently withUS 412.The Interstate ends at unsigned exit 124 in Walnut Ridge, where US 67 continues north toPocohintasand US 412 splits off to the east.
Missouri
editIn Missouri, I-57 begins inSikestonat acloverleaf interchangewithI-55as a continuation ofUS 60and heads east. EnteringCharleston,the Interstate almost immediately interchanges withI-57 Bus./Route 105.Southeast of the city, it then turns to the northeast. To the east of Charleston, the US 60 concurrency ends after about 12 miles (19 km) when I-57 meetsUS 62/Route 77,with US 60 heading eastward and I-57 Bus. ending. I-57 eventually meets the Missouri–Illinois state line at theMississippi River,crossing theCairo I-57 BridgeintoCairo, Illinois.
Illinois
editI-57 is the longest Interstate Highway in the state of Illinois, spanning 364.16 miles (586.06 km) long with Chicago being the main city along its northern route and Memphis being the southern main city along its southern route. I-57 then enters Illinois across theMississippi RiverintoCairo.It passes throughMoundsandUllin,and then it makes an interchange withUS 51,making US 51 depart from its temporary concurrency with the Interstate. I-57 then continues north and has an interchange withI-24towardNashville, Tennessee.It then continues to head towardMarion,West Frankfort,Benton,Whittington,andInaand then heads intoMount Vernon.In Mount Vernon, I-57 has a short concurrency withI-64while making twodiamond interchangeswith the city's streets. I-64 then leaves I-57 and continues its western route towardSt. Louis, Missouri,while I-57 continues towardEffingham.In Effingham,I-70joins I-57 and makes interchanges with the city's streets once again. I-70 then departs from I-57 and continues east towardTerre HauteandIndianapolis,Indiana. As for I-57, it continues and heads towardMattoonwhere it has a cloverleaf interchange withUS 45and then heads towardChampaignwhere it meets the terminus ofI-72in a cloverleaf interchange. It then travels for another two miles (3.2 km) and then meets up with a soon to be changed from a cloverleaf interchange to a semi-directional interchange withI-74going east toward Indianapolis (again) and west towardBloomington.The Interstate then heads towardKankakeeand then intoCook Countywhere it meets its own terminus withI-94ending inChicago.
History
editThe oldest segment of I-57 is a 6.2-mile (10.0 km) strip running east ofBradleytoKankakeelabeled on the 1959 Illinois state highway map.[5]Two years later, a 33-mile (53 km) stretch of I-57 fromDongolanorth toMarionopened on September 26, 1961.[6]Another portion between theIllinois Route 121(IL 121)/US 45exit and theWatson–Mason exit was completed and opened prior to July 1965, linking I-57 to I-70 and running in tandem with I-70 for several miles, with access toIndianapolis, Indiana,to the east andSt. Louis, Missouri,to the west.[citation needed]A 21.5-mile (34.6 km) section of I-57 inJefferson CountyfromBonnie(using a temporary road that is still partially visible from the northbound lanes) toIL 161later opened on December 9, 1969.[7]The portion of I-57 inChicago(known as the Dan Ryan West Leg Extension) was constructed and opened in segments between 1963 and 1970.[8]It remains the most recent Interstate Highway to be established within the city. The final section of I-57 in Illinois opened in December 1971 atPaxton.[9]
The portion ofI-43fromMilwaukeetoGreen Baywas originally numbered as I-57.[10]The number was changed due to the existence of I-57 in Illinois.[11]
I-57 was widened to six lanes in Effingham from 2011 until 2016.[12]
For many years, an interchange at the junction of I-57 withI-294did not exist. It was one of the few places in the U.S. where Interstates cross but have no interchange. TheIllinois Department of Transportation(IDOT) andIllinois State Toll Highway Authority(ISTHA) opened Phase 1 of a new interchange in 2014, providing access from I-57 north to I-294 north and from I-294 south to I-57 south.[13]Phase 2, which completed the remaining movements except for northbound I-57 to southbound I-294 and northbound I-294 to southbound I-57, was opened to traffic on September 11, 2022.[14]
Future
editI-57 is slated to eventually be extended west alongUS 60toPoplar Bluff, Missouri,and then south along theUS 67corridor toNorth Little Rock, Arkansas,ending atI-40.[15]The extension is listed under High Priority Corridor 89, the I-57 Corridor Extension.[16]In April 2016, a provision designating US 67 from North Little Rock toWalnut Ridge, Arkansas,as "Future I-57" was added into the federal fiscal year 2017 Transportation, Housing and Urban Development funding bill and officially became law in 2017.[17]On November 7, 2024, the section of US 67 between North Little Rock and Walnut Ridge, Arkansas, was officially designated as I-57 by ArDOT.[18]
Missouri has already converted 62 miles (100 km) of the US 60/US 67 corridor betweenSikestonandUS 160/Route 158nearHarviellto a mixture of freeway and expressway segments. All at-grade crossings along the corridor would have to be eliminated before the Interstate designation could be applied.[19]This leaves about twelve miles (19 km) of new freeway between US 160/Route 158 to the Arkansas state line to be constructed, with a start date TBD.[20]
In Arkansas, 118 miles (190 km) of Interstate-grade US 67 runs from I-40 toUS 412in Walnut Ridge, leaving a segment of approximately 40 miles (64 km) of new Interstate-grade highway along US 67 that still would need to be built in northeastern Arkansas.[21]TheArkansas Department of Transportation(ArDOT) announced in September 2023 that work to extend Future I-57 inClay Countywould begin in late 2024 or early 2025 depending on when contracts are let along with completion of the final design process.[22]The first section will be between the US 67 interchanges at Walnut Ridge andCorningwhile the second section (which will begin construction starting in 2025) will extend the first section northward to the Missouri state line.[23]Plans for the Corning Bypass showAR 657as a temporary designation for this section until other sections are completed.[24]ARDOT announced on November 6, 2024, that ground would be broken on the Corning Bypass on November 14, 2024.[25]
