Fictional Exit Guide

From: IA/MN State Line
To:  Mankato, MN

This fictional guide goes from south to north, as the mileposts do, so if you are heading southbound, go to the bottom and scroll up.   It includes some stretches that are on existing real-life highways.   I've included additional lanes on some stretches that I feel need them, as well as adding a couple routes and modifying a few interchanges.  Mileages are rough and may not reflect actual mileage along the corridor.  Route shields framed in blue indicate Exit List continuations (click on the shield to continue).
