Interstate 235 (Iowa)

Encyclopedia : I : IN : INT : Interstate 235 (Iowa)


Interstate 235 (abbreviated I-235) in Iowa, also known as the MacVicar Freeway, is a 13.8 mile-long bypass route in the Des Moines metropolitan area. It is a spur route of Interstate 35. At both its western and its northern terminus, I-235 connects with the junction of Interstate 35 and Interstate 80 (I-235 travels in an east-west direction before turning north-south east of downtown Des Moines), and it passes through the cities of West Des Moines, Windsor Heights and Des Moines. It is the only interstate highway that travels through downtown Des Moines; both Interstate 35 and Interstate 80 (which are co-designated through the northern Des Moines metropolitan area) do not pass through the city proper.

Interstate 235 in Iowa is currently under major reconstruction. Details can be found at [I-235 Construction Iowa Department of Transportation]
