One Of The Longest Highways In America Goes Through North Dakota

North Dakota actually has TWO of the longest highways in America that trek through our state.

One of them is actually in the top 10 in the USA and the other is in the top 20.  The highway in the top 10 runs right through Bismarck Mandan and covers the whole state from west to east.  The highway in the top 20 also covers the whole state from north to south.

The 20th longest highway in America that goes through North Dakota is I-29. 

According to Stacker, this is one of the most heavily trafficked crossing stations in North America due to the fact it's open 24 hours a day at the Pembina, North Dakota, and Emerson, Manitoba port of entry.

Growing up in Grand Forks, North Dakota, I made many trips to Winnipeg, Manitoba on I29 going to Jets hockey games, fishing trips, and even school trips.  This crossing into Canada is quite impressive.

I-29 runs for a total of 755 miles from North Dakota to Kansas.  The state with the most miles is South Dakota with 252.2 miles.

The 9th longest highway in America that goes through North Dakota is I-94.

I-94 runs for a total of 1,555.4 miles.  Its western terminus is in Billings, Montana at the junction with I-90, while its eastern terminus is in Port Huron, Michigan at the Canadian border.

North Dakota is where you will find the most miles when it comes to Interstate 94 with a total of 352.4 miles that run through our state.  I-94 links the cities of Bismarck, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, and Chicago together.

The Longest Highway in America by the way is just to the south of North Dakota.  It's I-90 which runs for a total of 3,021.2 miles.  It runs through our neighboring states of Montana, South Dakota, and Minnesota.
