IH-35

While driving through Kansas on a recent road trip I discovered that our Interstate Highway 35 was a tollway just south of Wichita. As anyone can imagine this was upsetting. To be driving on any one of this nation's great Interstate Highways we can almost be certain we are on a freeway. How unpatriotic can any state or local government be? Anyhow I researched the matter further and Kansas does have the historical information on the web at:

It is quite unfortunate but there are other alternate routes such as 281. Tollways are not American.
