Missouri Route 283
Route 283 is a short highway in the Kansas City, Missouri regional area. Its northern terminus is at Interstate 29/U.S. Route 71 in Kansas City; its southern terminus is at Route 9 at the northern city limit of North Kansas City. It is known locally as North Oak Trafficway.
Route description
Route 283 begins at a fork from Route 9 northbound (Burlington Avenue) in North Kansas City, Missouri. The two routes fork away from one another, with Route 283, the North Oak Trafficway, crossing Northwest 32nd Avenue as a four-lane divided highway. North of Northwest 32nd, Route 283's four lanes come back together and bend northward over a creek as it enters Water Works Park along the southbound side. The route heads due north, becoming commercial northbound and residential southbound. This changes to a long commercial district in Kansas City before intersecting with Northeast Briarcliff Road/Northeast 42nd Street. At that point, the four-lane highway returns to a mixed residential/business stretch until Northeast 46th Street. After Northeast 46th, Route 283 enters an interchange with Interstate 29 and U.S. Route 71, where the designation terminates at ramps just south of U.S. Route 69 (Northeast Vivion Road) and Anita B. Gorman Park.
Georgia State Route 283
State Route 283 (SR 283) is a south-north state highway that runs in a wide arc in the northeastern part of the U.S. state of Georgia. Its route is located entirely within Hall County.
Route description
SR 283 begins at an intersection with SR 60 (Thompson Bridge Road) northwest of Gainesville. It heads northeast, crossing the Wahoo Creek arm of Lake Lanier. Then, the route curves to the northwest before curving back to the east. West of Clermont, it shares a brief concurrency with SR 52 (Dahlonega Highway). Farther to the east, in Clermont, SR 283 has an even shorter concurrency with SR 284 (Main Street). Just before leaving Clermont is an intersection with US 129/SR 11 (Cleveland Highway). SR 283 heads southeast until it reaches Skitts Mountain Road. There, it makes a right turn until it meets its northern terminus, a second intersection with SR 52 (Luna Road).

U.S. Route 69
U.S. Route 69 is a north–south United States highway. When it was first created, it was only 150 miles (241 km) long, but it has since been expanded into a Minnesota to Texas cross-country route. The highway's southern terminus (as well as those of US 287 and US 96) is in Port Arthur, Texas at an intersection with State Highway 87. Its northern terminus is in Albert Lea, Minnesota at Minnesota State Highway 13.
Route description
Texas
US 69 begins at its southern terminus with SH 87 in Port Arthur. This intersection is also the southern terminus for US 96 and US 287, which are concurrent with US 69. US 69, US 96, and US 287 continue in a northwest, then west, route until its intersection with Interstate 10 in southern Beaumont. At this intersection, US 69, US 96, and US 287 merge with I-10. I-10/US 69/US 96/US 287 continue in a northerly direction through Beaumont for several miles. Just after the intersection with US 90, I-10 splits from the multiplex and resumes its easterly course, leaving US 69, US 96, and US 287 heading northwest through Beaumont. US 69 north of I-10 is also known officially known as Eastex Freeway, and is an official evacuation route, just as Interstate 69/US 59 heading north from Houston is known as Eastex Freeway as well.
U.S. Route 431
U.S. Route 431 is a spur of U.S. Route 31. It currently runs for 556 miles (895 km) from Owensboro, Kentucky at U.S. Route 60 to Dothan, Alabama, at U.S. Route 231 and U.S. Route 84.
Route description
Alabama
U.S. 431 is paired with unsigned State Route 1 throughout almost all of Alabama, with the exception Dothan, where it is paired with unsigned State Route 210. Within Dothan, AL 1 is also paired with US 231 between the Florida State Line and the Dothan Loop, and US Business Routes 231 and 431 in Dothan, Alabama.
The route takes a rather meandering path through southeast Alabama. It heads in a northeast direction to pass through Phenix City near the Georgia state line, then cuts back to the west to pass through Opelika; the portion between Phenix City and Opelika is concurrent with U.S. Route 280. From Opelika, US 431 swings back and forth between northwest and northeast as it works its way through the southern extent of the Appalachian Mountains, then turning northwest to pass through the Talladega National Forest, arriving at a junction with Interstate 20 a few miles east of Oxford. The combined routes travel westward from Exit 191 into Oxford, where US 431 splits off at Exit 188 and heads northward through Oxford and the adjacent city of Anniston; through this section the route is named Veterans Memorial Parkway.
U.S. Route 190
U.S. Route 190, also known as the Ronald Reagan Memorial Highway, is an east–west United States highway in Louisiana and Texas. It evolved from the shortest of intrastate routes in 1926 to a length comparable to a main Interstate Highway route, leading from the swamps and pine forests of Louisiana to the West Texas desert.
Route description
Texas
The western terminus is at a point where US 190 intersects with Interstate 10, a few miles east of Bakersfield and 20 mi (32 km) west of the town of Iraan, in the middle of Pecos County.
It runs east through Texas Hill Country speckled with sage brush, intersecting with State Highway 305, crossing into Schleicher County, and intersecting with U.S. Route 277 in Eldorado. Just outside Eldorado was where the raid of the Yearning for Zion Ranch gained national attention. US 190 continues east into Menard County, intersecting State Highway 864, and passing a few miles north of Fort McKavett State Historic Site, entering Menard and intersecting with U.S. Route 83 north a short distance.
U.S. Route 283
U.S. Route 283 is a spur of U.S. Route 83. It currently runs for 731 miles (1,175 km) from Brady, Texas at U.S. Route 87 to Lexington, Nebraska at U.S. Route 30. It passes through the states of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska.
Route description
Texas
This route originally went southeast from Albany via Cisco, Rising Star, and Brownwood to end at Brady. In 1951, this route became US 380 (later SH 6), US 183, and US 377. It was rerouted to its current routing between Albany and Brady in 1951, replacing the old route of US 183.
Oklahoma
US-283 enters Oklahoma from Texas in rural Jackson County at a crossing of the Red River. It runs concurrently with State Highway 5 for several miles past Elmer and continues north to Altus, the largest Oklahoma town on the route. At the intersection of U.S. Highway 62 in Altus, SH-5 splits off and 283 joins with State Highway 6 for the next 12 miles (19 km) before it takes a western bend to the town of Mangum. The route continues northwesterly until it crosses I-40 at Sayre.
