OKRoads.com -- Fields Trip -- Interstate 90 Illinois

The longest interstate in the country is Interstate 90. It begins in Seattle, Washington, and goes all the way to Boston, Massachusetts. At a length of over 3,000 miles, the highway goes through Washington, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, and Massachusetts. On Day Three of the Fields Trip, I drove Interstate 90 from Interstate 290 in Chicago to Interstate 80/94 near Portage, Indiana.

	Interstate 90/94 East approaching the Express/Local split. The brown sign on the right post of the sign bridge indicates that U.S. Cellular Field can be accessed from the next three exits.
	After much warning, Interstate 90/94 splits into the Express/Local setup. For some reason, I took the local lanes. I guess I did so I could get better pictures of the exits.

	Interstate 90/94 East at Exit 59A - Interstate 90 East - Skyway/To Indiana Toll Road.
	Since the Skyway is not Interstate-standard, the highway is signed "TO Interstate 90." Such as seen here just east of Interstate 94.
	Interstate 90 East approaching Skyway Toll Plaza - 1 mile. Construction was in progress along almost the entire Skyway the day I was there.
	Interstate 90 East approaching Skyway Toll Plaza - 1/2 mile.
	"Stop Ahead Pay Toll" sign as the highway approaches the toll plaza. The sign gantries on the Skyway are in this style, much like those found in Colorado, Utah, and Arizona.
	Chicago Skyway Toll Plaza on "TO" Interstate 90 East. A $2 toll is paid for 2-axle vehicles.
	The highest point on the Skyway is at the top of this bridge. Moveable barriers were in place on this part of the highway.
	View from the top of the bridge. Lake Michigan is seen to the left. Otherwise, there isn't much to look at. Unless you like industial areas and power lines.
	The only eastbound exit on the Skyway is at the eastern end for U.S. 12/20/41/ Indianapolis Blvd./106th Street. The highway enters the state of Indiana after crossing the federal highways and becomes Interstate 90 once again, without the "TO" banner attached.
