Interstate Highway A-1 (I-A1) in Alaska

 

A map of Interstate A1 (I-A1) in Alaska, and the shield for I-A1.

Interstate A-1 (I-A1) is a 41.3 miles (66.4 km) long Interstate highway that connects Anchorage and Wasilla in Alaska. Most of I-A1 is also part of the Glenn Highway. Alaska Route 1 from Anchorage to Homer is designated as part of Interstate A1's routing, however this segment is not signed as I-A1 and is not up to Interstate highway standards. The speed limit on I-A1 is 60 mph (100 km/h) from Wasilla to D Street and 55 mph (90 km/h) from D Street to Bragaw Street before slowing down to 45 mph at Airport Heights Drive/Mountain View Drive where the freeway ends.

In addition to I-A1, there are three unsigned Interstate highways in Alaska - Interstate A-2, Interstate A-3 and Interstate A-4.

Interstate A-2 - Also known as the Alaska Highway and the Richardson Highway, runs from Tok to Fairbanks. Unsigned for its entire length and is not up to Interstate highway standards.

Interstate A-3 - Also known as the Seward Highway and the Sterling Highway, runs from Soldotna to Anchorage. Unsigned for its entire length and is not up to Interstate highway standards.

Interstate A-4 - Also known as the Parks Highway, runs from Gateway (near Palmer, AK) to Fairbanks. Unsigned for its entire length and is not up to Interstate highway standards.

"Mallettbarr Plainess" - A Summary of Mallettbarr Culture and Defining Characteristics

Mallettbarr isn't called the Prudence State because of the implication that its residents are humble, low-key and are extremely disinclined to stand out from one another – Mallettbarrites are socially prudent, tend to be largely ignorant of the world outside their own physical constitutions, and are unwavering (indeed, the state's motto). Anti-social, curt, brusque, abrasive, provincial, grumpy, aloof, cold, distant, insecure, self-defensive and standoffish are not words you'd expect to describe someone from a place that's in between Altamasstachia and Hawaii, but these stereotypes are accurate and appropriate given their love of living pure, unadulterated country life and in solitude, nature, hunting, fishing, hiking and football and a quiet contempt for anything else. Where a whisper is a yell, Mallettbarrites are a hard, difficult people who live simply and deliberately.  After all, "Mallettbarr Plainess", the term often used to describe the reclusive natur

  Welcome to the official blog of the 55-State Union Series - an alternate geographical history of the United States of America where-in there are three completely new U.S states - Altamasstachia  (pronounced as All-tuh-mahs-sta-she-ah), Mallettbarr and Zeconnemeleth (pronounced as Zeh-con-nah-mah-leth), plus Puerto Rico is its own U.S. state as is Michigan's Upper Peninsula, known here as Superior . In addition, West Virginia is known in this timeline as Kanawha . While this timeline will cover the rest of the United States, as well as the political, economical and social landscape of the world at large, this blog will primarily focus on Altamasstachia, Mallettbarr, and Zeconnemeleth and their respective histories, demographics, cultures and the ramifications that their individual existences have on the United States as there are many butterfly effects that stem from this very concept. The political landscape of the world in the 55-State Union Series timeline, as of December 31

Things Only People From Altamasstachia Understand

It may be true that each state is unique in their own way, but Altamasstachia truly isn't like all the other states in America! Here in the Bayflower State, we Altamasstachians take extreme pride in our ways of life, our traditions and our oddities and quirks that define our homeland as we continue to embrace our future together, from Olympia to San Gerardo Bravo to Heston to St. Ann to Foxbridge and to New Scotland. While there's always something for everyone in Altamasstachia whether you're north or south of the Clapton Line, there's always going to be our own unique eccentricities only we Bayflower folk can understand. Altamasstachians Measure Travel In Counties.   Lee County is just one of Altamasstachia's seemingly endless counties. And trust us, each county has something for everyone. With the possible exception of Midway County. You may as well get used to seeing lots of these signs travelling on the road in this state. Altamasstachia has 550 counties, which
