It runs from Baltimore to Provo, Utah, and the 1985 World Series was nicknamed after it. And did you know that they started building the very first stretch of it in Missouri, but the first section to be completed was in Kansas? A look at how Kansas and Missouri have been shaped by I-70.
Plus, we hear from a woman who has driven a stretch of I-70 so much that she wrote a song about it.
Guests:
- LuAnn Cadden, author of Driving Across Missouri: A Guide to I-70
- Monroe Dodd, KCUR's resident historian
- Charlie Nemmers, Director, Transportation Infrastructure Center at the University of Missouri
- Heidi Gluck, musician
