Business Routes

I'm in favor of adding the business routes. Someone else created a list of the Missouri ones, but it would be nice to have them in some sort of order. I put them in order of east to west and added a couple. I also created unique links for individual ones (see List of bannered U.S. Highways, it was done there and some of these have articles written). I changed the text, too. It read that some of these run through several towns and several miles in the country. It is very similar (or copied, not that I mind) from the section on business routes I wrote for U.S. Highway 71. The problem is, of the ones listed, none in Missouri really do this. Only for the business route through Aurora. While a mile or two in the rural area is normal, it's pretty much normal. My intent for US 71 is that those business routes (with the exception of Neosho's) run for numerous miles. Business 71 in Joplin runs through 5+ cities (as does Northwest Arkansas) and the totals for these two, each, is a whopping 30+ miles. In Missouri anyway, none of the Business 60's do this. --Rt66lt, August 19, 2005
