Interstate 80 Business (BL-80) is a business loop of Interstate 80 that serves as the main street for the towns of West Wendover, Nevada, and Wendover, Utah, along a roadway named Wendover Boulevard. A line painted on the street marks the Nevada–Utah border. The road, which is 2.26 miles (3.64 km) long, passes West Wendover City Hall and the Peppermill, Montego Bay Resort and Wendover Nugget casinos. A portion of the Nevada segment of BL-80 is concurrent with U.S. Route 93 Alternate, and the entire portion in Utah is coterminous with Utah State Route 58. Wendover Boulevard was completed in 1925 as part of the Victory Highway across America, and was opened by governors George H. Dern of Utah and James G. Scrugham of Nevada and the Secretary of Agriculture, William M. Jardine. In 1926, it became part of U.S. Route 40, which connected California to New Jersey via Nevada and Utah. The Nevada Department of Transportation applied to the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials for the business loop designation in the early 1980s. The designation has never been approved, despite business loop signs being posted in both states, as Utah has not submitted a request as required by the association. (Full article...)
