Lesson plan
Interstate 474
Interstate 474 (I-474) is an Interstate Highway loop route that provides a southwestern bypass around the north-central Illinois city of Peoria. I-474's parent Interstate is I-74. As the first digit of the Interstate's number is even, it follows the established convention of providing a loop around a city. I-474 is long. I-474 is currently the highest numbered route in the state of Illinois, but will be surpassed by I-490 when that road is completed in 2027. It is also, excluding the proposed I-274 in North Carolina, the only auxiliary route of I-74.
