2026 marks the 250th Anniversary of our Country, and during those years our Nation has transformed the way that it gets around, even though it has been undertaken in “various steps”. Just as in our own area, Pioneers oftentimes traveled along trails that had been used for years by the Indians who resided in the territories. As more folks arrived, especially with the advent of carriages, wagons and then motor vehicles, these roads gradually became highways set up by state and federal agencies. In Central Ohio, for example, U.S. Highway 40 was one of the first U.S. Highways and opened in 1926, combining roads that ran from Atlantic City on the
East Coast all the way to San Francisco on the West Coast. It was originally known as the National Road, traveling through cities such as Columbus and Indianapolis, and, in recent years, cities along the way are more typically served by Interstate 70. For those living in Northern Ohio, Historic Route 20 began not too much later to serve twelve states as far west as Oregon and Montana, through Ohio, and east to Pennsylvania and New York.
